Smyrna man Aric Keck, girlfriend Jacqueline Tabb charged for intentionally leaving 6-year-old in the car
A Smya father and his girlfriend are facing charges after police say they intentionally left his 6-year-old son alone in a car for nearly 40 minutes.
Surveillance video shows a woman walking a little boy out of an Alpharetta restaurant a few weeks ago. Police say Jacqueline Tabb left the kid in his father's car.
Then, the video shows Tabb retuing to the restaurant without him.
"We had a 6-year-old who was by himself in a vehicle while custodial dad for this visitation period is inside the restaurant having dinner with his girlfriend," police said.
Police say the 6-year-old called his mother in Cobb County to say the couple left him in the car for more than a half hour. Police say the boy's mother called 911.
"Cobb County contacted and also spoke to the 6-year-old boy. The 6-year-old boy was able to give us succinct details about the street name and basically where he is located."
Police have charged Tabb and Aric Keck with reckless conduct.
In Alpharetta, many had a strong reaction to the allegations.
"As a father, it's just sad. Sad that they'd do that, resident Mark Dlugozima said. ”Negligence of some sort, I would say so."
