A Poland Township woman faces a child endangering charge for the second time in a year, this time for allegedly leaving a crying toddler alone in an SUV while she went shopping.

According to a police report, two women spotted a toddler wearing a dirty diaper inside a GMC Envoy parked outside the Giant Eagle on Center Road at around 7 p.m. on Tuesday of last week.

The women told police that a window was partially open, but not wide enough for them to rescue the child.

Police say 36-year-old Heather Strojny came out of the store with a cart full of groceries. A review of surveillance video shows she was in the store for 19 minutes, according to the report.

Strojny told police that the child isn’t hers, but she had been watching the two-year-old for a friend.

At the time of the incident, Strojny was waiting to be sentenced for an earlier child endangering charge filed nearly a year earlier after police found her underage teen son in the parking lot of a Poland church at 4:30 a.m. 

Strojny pleaded not guilty to the most recent charge and is free on $12,500 bond.
