A Sheridan woman was arrested Tuesday after she allegedly admitted leaving two children in a parked car while she was in the Saracen Casino.
Whitley Pearce, 33, was taken into custody after police were notified about the children by casino security.

Reading from a probable cause affidavit from Detective Sgt. Ryan Moheb, Deputy Prosecutor MIrcha King explained the allegations against Pearce.

Pine Bluff District Judge John Kearney set a $20,000 bond for Pearce Wednesday after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge her with endangering the welfare of a minor. Pearce was ordered to have no contact with the victims until the case is settled.
