‘Bugs swimming in toilet water’: 2-year-old in ‘very soiled’ diaper found wandering in street after dad passes out in filthy home, cops say

Deputies in Florida arrested a father after they allegedly found his 2-year-old son wondering alone on the street wearing a soiled diaper.

Concerned neighbors along Collins Lane in Palm Coast called the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office around 9 a.m. Sunday when they saw the boy walking in the middle of the street “with no guardian in sight” and cars stopping in the road to avoid hitting him, a probable cause arrest affidavit said. When neighbors approached the boy, he pointed to where he lived.
