Maxine Brown, 58, and Prince Wilson, 57, both of Hemingway, were arrested earlier this week for leaving two children, ages 7 and 11, in a hot vehicle for over an hour while they played video poker in a convenience store on Third Loop Road in Florence County (located in the U.S. state of South Carolina).
Brown and Wilson are now facing charges of Cruelty to Children, a crime that is punishable by imprisonment for not more than 30 days or a fine of not more than $200, according to carolinaalive.com. Officials stated that the children were in their care and custody for now.
