A woman has been charged with felony child neglect after police say her child has not eaten properly in months, according to arrest warrants.
Sarah Weber was taken into custody at the home she was renting on Delamere Lane early Saturday morning.
According to arrest warrants, Weber told officers that one of her children had not eaten solid foods in approximately six months. She said that the same child also had diarrhea for at least one month.
It goes on to say that Weber failed to take the child to an area hospital to seek help from a medical professional.
When the child was finally taken to a hospital to be examined by a doctor, they were severely malnourished. The child was then admitted to that hospital, according to arrest warrants.
