Thurmont police Sgt. Shawn Tyler said he could barely believe his eyes: Before him, at a Frederick County shopping mall, a woman was helping three young children into the trunk of her car.
Two boys -- one the woman's 9-year-old son and the other an 8-year-old friend -- hopped into the trunk of the teal Volvo 850 on their own, according to court documents charging Lanora Adele Lucas with three counts of reckless endangerment. The 3-year-old, Lucas's daughter, came last, set inside by Lucas, the officer said. With that, she drove off southward.
