A Texas mother was arrested earlier this month and charged with endangering a child after she brought her son to a Covid testing site in the car of her trunk.
41-year-old Sarah Beam argued that the 13-year-old boy had tested positive for the virus at home and she feared for her safety.
Health workers at the Cy-Fair ISD alerted Police on January 3 about the incident. Beam reportedly unlatched the trunk of her car for nurses to check on the ill boy who layed there without safety restraints.
Surveillance footage from the scene reportedly caught the moment health workers helped the boy move from the trunk to the backseat for testing.
Beam, who worked as a teacher at Cypress Falls High School, was placed on administrative leave following the incident.
