BAY ST. LOUIS, Miss. (AP) - The parents of four children foundlocked in the back of a U-Haul truck have been charged with child
endangerment.
Mississippi Highway Patrol spokesman Cpl. Johnny Poulos says
Hancock County deputies on Monday found the children, girls ages 7,
10, 11 and 15, in the back of a rental truck. Authorities say the
family was traveling to Louisiana.

County jail pending an initial court appearance. He says the
children were released into the custody of a grandparent from
Louisiana.
