Two Suffolk parents have been arrested after their daughter allegedly was found alone in the street.

Laquita Monique Flythe, 27, and Gerald Jerrod Brown, 31, are charged with abuse and neglect of children and cruelty and injuries to children.

According to city spokeswoman Diana Klink, officers on Thursday responded to a residence in the 140 block of Mahan Street when someone found the 3-year-old girl wandering alone in the street at about 10 a.m.

A family member took custody of the child, Klink said. Child Protective Services has been notified, and the investigation is ongoing.
