Maybe he was playing for the rent money?
Dwight Ridgeway McGinnis, 67, of Raleigh, N.C., is accused of leaving his mother in his red Ford truck for nearly five hours Monday as temperatures outside rose to 83 degrees, Anne Arundel County police said. They received a call a little after 6:30 p.m. ET from a passerby who saw the woman inside the car in a Maryland Live! Casino parking garage with one window partially lowered.
The woman uses a wheelchair and is incapable of providing basic needs for herself, police said. The only evidence of food or drink in the vehicle was an empty soda can.
McGinnis was inside the casino playing craps and slots, his mother is 98-years-old. He’s been charged with McGinnis with one count of vulnerable adult neglect.
