Parents Allegedly Party as Boys Are Home Alone
A father and stepmother allegedly left their two boys alone and celebrated New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas, authorities said.
San Ramon Police Sgt. Eric Webb said officers checked on the 5- and 9-year-old brothers Saturday night after their grandmother said she suspected they were by themselves.
The boys were unharmed.
Police have not released the parents’ names because no arrests have been made, but have confirmed they are conducting a criminal investigation.
The boys are staying with their grandmother; the parents have yet to return.
