SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) – The Shreveport Police Department has arrested a woman for reportedly kicking her two young kids of the car and leaving them on the side of the road.
Police say the “troubling” incident happened Wednesday, May 28. Officers were first sent out to the 3400 block of Palm Road on a report about missing kids. When they got there, they talked with detectives from the Shreveport Police Juveniles Crimes Unit.
Detectives say Laquesha Washington, 33, was in some kind of verbal fight with her kids (ages 11 and 12). According to the kids, Washington forced them out of the car near the intersection of Broadway and Hollywood before driving away, leaving them alone.
Police say hours later, Washington called police to report the kids missing. While officers were talking with her, a family member called them and said the kids had showed up at a house in the 1300 block of Andrew Avenue.
CRIME IN THE ARKLATEX

Police say both kids were unharmed.
