IREDELL COUNTY, N.C. -- The parents of a three-year-old were arrested Wednesday after their child was found wandering around a mobile home park naked.
When deputies responded to the call for service, they found the nude child and brought the three-year-old into the home of the individual who alerted authorities. The deputies remained on scene while waiting for social services to arrive. Deputies said while they waited, they didn't notice any movement around or in the child's home.
When authorities were able to make contact, the child's mother 25-year-old Devon Erin Dilorenzo said she had been asleep and didn't realize her child was outside.
The child's father, 27-year-old David Velazquez Castillo, was also asleep inside the home at the time.
According to the Iredell County Sheriff's Office, social services removed the child from the residence for "safe keeping."
Dilorenzo and Castillo were taken to the Iredell County Detention Center where they were each charged with one count of misdemeanor child abuse. Each suspect was placed under a $15,000 secured bond.
