Arthur Langley, Pennsylvania Dad, Left 1-Year-Old Daughter To Go Burglarize Homes: Cops

BROOKHAVEN, Pa. -- Police say a man left his 1-year-old daughter home alone while he tried to break into neighbors' houses in a Philadelphia suburb.

Authorities say it happened on Wednesday morning in Brookhaven. They say 20-year-old Arthur Langley was arrested after a resident called 911 to report a suspicious person.

Police went to his house and found the girl in a child seat watching television. Police called the girl's mother to come pick her up.

Langley is being held on $100,000 bail on charges including attempted burglary and endangering the welfare of a child. It wasn't immediately clear if he had an attorney.

What a fucked up parent.

One also has to wonder about the quality of his child's upbringing.

I'm still trying to process just the headline of the woman who glued her child to the wall to beat her (to death?)

A parent wouldn't have let a child of that age alone; he's a sperm donor who created a child.

I hope there are resources to put that baby girl into a loving home, free from her current situation.
