Family of mom charged after her toddler is killed by a car calls for charges against driver.
The family of a Houston mother who is facing child endangerment charges after a car driven by someone else struck and killed her toddler is calling for the driver to be charged.
As Vazquez went into an apartment, leaving her son unsupervised, a white vehicle in the parking lot backed up and then drove forward, hitting the child in the process, the statement said, adding that Vazquez ran to her son when she saw him lying on the ground. “The mother knew, or she should have known, that the little one was free in the parking lot,” he said. “That charge was immediate and something we determined was necessary to ensure the safety of the 2-month-old and the other children around there.”"This was an accident," Vazquez’s cousin Juriyoel Hernandez told ABC Houston station KTRK."Right now, they're telling her it's her fault, and it's not her fault.
