> LAWRENCE, Kan. -- A Lawrence mother is in jail, accused of
leaving her two small children inside a car for hours, while she
was at a bar.
>
> The kids were found during the single digit temperatures early
Wednesday morning.
>
> Playerz Sports Bar in Lawrence is back open for business after
a strange series of events late Tuesday night into early
Wednesday morning. A worker told FOX4 that a 26-year-old woman,
later identified as Tiara Dillon, came into the bar about 9:30
p.m. Tuesday.
>
> Over the course of almost 4 hours, bartenders said she ordered
several drinks and made erratic remarks. At 1:30 a.m., they'd
had enough and kicked her out.
>
> Dillon went out to the parking lot, and apparently her car
wouldn't start. Workers said she tried to go back to the bar,
and that's when Playerz called police.
>
> Officers said Dillon had left the area, but they found her car
nearby. Two children, ages 2 and 3, were inside. The temperature
outside at the time in Lawrence was 6 degrees with a wind chill
of -12.
>
> Dillon was arrested for DUI and aggravated child endangerment.
She's expected in court Thursday.
>
> Police said the kids weren't injured, but child protective
services is also now investigating.
>
> "Being in a car is not predictable, and they can be exposed to
those temperatures that cause medical issues," said Dr. Travis
Langner, University of Kansas Health System pediatric critical
care division manager.
>
> Doctors at the University of Kansas Health System say extreme
temperatures like we're seeing now are extremely dangerous for
small kids. Their tiny bodies can't adjust to the deep freeze
easily, and it only takes a drop of a couple degrees in body
temp for mild hypothermia to kick in.
>
> "Definitely within minutes you could have that drop in what we
call core temperature of the body. Once it gets below 95
degrees, we start becoming very concerned and want those
patients to present to the hospital because part of the
treatment is to re-warm them a specific way that can`t be done
at home," Langner said.
>
> It's safe to say that since the two children in Lawrence
could've been in the car up to 4 hours, it's incredible that
they're OK.
>
> Experts said it's also important to know even running your car
heater with small kids inside can be dangerous. If kids get too
hot inside coats and blankets and can't take them off, they can
get sick from being overheated, too.
