Prestonsburg Police have arrested four people this week after they endangered a two year old by being intoxicated while the child was found laying in vomit.
On December 26th, Prestonsburg Police were dispatched to a report of four drunk individuals at an apartment at Dixie Court.
Upon arrival Officer Jacob Arrowood and officers D. Adams and J. Chaffins responded and made contact with the residents, Casey Klein, 24 and Abigail Klein, 22, who both appeared to be intoxicated.
The citation stated that the Kleins told officers that a male subject, Brandon Maynard, 30, of Wells Drive was watching their two year old child. When officers made contact with Maynard, he had told them he had taken methamphetamine that day, as well as Lexy Setser, 20, of Pennington Drive, who smelled strongly of alcoholic beverages and appeared to be intoxicated.
The citation said Setser was later found to have a blood alcohol level of .147.
The two year old was found lying in a bed in the same room with Maynard and Setser, lying in vomit. The child had vomit dried to the side of its face and was very pale colored. Arrowood wrote that the apartment was littered in trash, human feces and broken glass.
Abigail Klein, Casey Klein and Brandon Maynard were all arrested on charges of second-degree wanton endangerment and third-degree unlawful transaction with a minor, while Setser was arrested on a charge of second-degree wanton endangerment.
According to court documents, the two year old was transported to Highlands ARH Regional Medical Center by EMS for treatment and social services were contacted.
