ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Authorities have located family friends of
a 2-year-old girl a day after she was found wandering around an
Orlando mall alone.
The Orange County Sheriff's Office says the girl, named Emarie,
was located at the Florida Mall on Wednesday night by a couple
visiting from Georgia.
The couple notified mall security, who alerted the sheriff's office.
Investigators say Walnita Decuir and Kenyaka Becker were looking
after the girl.
They are friends of her parents and were visiting Walt Disney World while the toddler's parents stayed at their home in Baton Rouge, La.
The Department of Children and Families has authorized the
release of the girl back to them with her parents' approval.
Authorities are waiting to determine whether child neglect charges
will be filed.
