(Ambridge, Pa.) Ambridge Police Officers received a call for a domestic situation around 2:30 a.m. yesterday morning from Shannon Lee Hartman, who wanted to press charges against Warren Jackson, but when police arrived at the scene in Crestview Village Apartments neither Hartman or Jackson were there and officers found five children home alone living in deplorable conditions.

There was dirt, food , and feces covering the kids and the floors throughout the apartment.
A one-year-old was found crawling at the top of the steps alone in danger of falling. When they searched the rest of the house, there were four more kids alone ranging in ages two to seven.

It took almost four hours before police finally located the pair back in the apartment parking lot. One the children was taken by another family member and the other four are with children and youth services.

Both Hartman and Jackson are each facing five counts of endangering the welfare of a child and recklessly endangering another person.
