The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office arrested a woman who investigators say abandoned three young children in three different areas of town on Monday.
The sheriff's office initially took a call at round 5 a.m. from someone who said a woman in a white 2018 Chevy Equinox just abandoned an 8-year-old child at a gas station on Okeechobee Boulevard.
Four hours later, the sheriff's office said West Palm Beach Police took another call that a woman abandoned a 3-year-old child at a Publix store in West Palm Beach.
Fifteen minutes later, the sheriff's office said West Palm Beach Police said someone spotted the woman's car at the corner of North Ocean Boulevard and Sunrise in Palm Beach. When police arrived, officers saw the woman walk away from the white Chevy Equinox, abandoning a 1-year-old child inside the locked SUV.
Police arrested the woman right away. She's been identified as 36-year-old Miesha Perkins of Louisiana. Authorities arrested her on three counts of child neglect.
The sheriff's office said Perkins and the father of the children were on their way to Palm Beach County from Louisiana. At some point during the drive, the father was removed from the car. Once Perkins arrived in Palm Beach County, investigators said she abandoned the children.
