Mom Accused of Leaving Infant Home Alone for Burger King

Officers entered the home through a window after no one responded and found the baby in the crib with a wet diaper

A Hyannis, Massachusetts, woman is facing charges after she allegedly left her infant son home alone to pick up Burger King. 

According to the Cape Cod Times, court documents say Stefanie DiSilva, 19, pleaded not guilty to reckless endangerment in court Tuesday. 

The documents say police responded to an apartment on West Main Street Monday for a report of a baby crying inside the home. 

Officers entered the home through a window after no one responded and found the baby in the crib with a wet diaper. The infant was taken to a hospital. 

DiSilva is set to appear in court on Aug. 17.
