People in street
Published Friday, June 13, 2008
Fergus Falls police received a report of a woman laying with her child near the intersection of Cavour and Second Avenues at about 9 p.m. Thursday. A witness told authorities the woman was crying and had fallen on the child multiple times. When officers arrived, they found the woman intoxicated and incoherent; she was transported to Lake Region Hospital and the child was picked up by a family friend.

The Daily Journal is happy to host community conversations about news and life in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area. As hosts, we expect guests will show respect for each other. That means we don't threaten or defame each other, and we keep conversations free of personal attacks. Witty is great. Abusive is not. If you think a post violates these standards, don't escalate the situation. Instead, flag the comment to alert us. We'll take action if necessary. It's not hard. This should be a place where people want to read and contribute -- a place for spirited exchanges of opinion. So those who persist with racist, defamatory or abusive postings risk losing the privilege to post at all.Posted by cmrx44 (anonymous) on June 13, 2008 at 12:43 p.m. (Suggest removal)

Oh how very sad :(
Hopefully the mother will get help after this
embarrasing situation. If not, I hope the child
gets put with someone safe until she does get help.
My prayers are with this lady and her child.

She may have had a medical problem like diabetes or something that makes them appear incoherent or drunk like symptoms.
The whole story is not there. We may never know.
