An Indianapolis woman who transported babies across the city in a milk crate strapped to a bicycle has been sentenced to a year in prison for neglect of a dependent.
Indianapolis Metro police officers arrested 36-year-old Blossum Kirby in July of 2022 after multiple witnesses called 911. Several callers told IMPD that they had seen Kirby riding a bicycle on the city’s east side and almost fall off the bike.
One man said he thought Kirby was transporting toys in the milk crates attached to the bike. But then, he saw an arm move inside. Soon after, he and his coworkers approached Kirby and saw what was inside the milk crate: two unrestrained 2-month-old twin babies.
The coworkers at Just Pizza on 10th Street contacted medics after noticing that the babies were inside and seeing Kirby almost hit her bike on a curb, court documents show. Witnesses said Kirby struggled to stay awake while waiting for police and would occasionally come to and yell.
