Police in Pennsylvania arrested two parents after finding their seven children living in what authorities described as “unsanitary” and “unsafe living conditions” – which included caged rats and feces on the home’s floor.
Authorities responded to reports on April 23 of three children entering an abandoned trailer in West Rockhill Township, 40 miles north of Philadelphia, according to a police affidavit filed May 19.
When the police found the children, they spoke with the parents and returned them to their home next to the abandoned trailer.
When officers later returned to the home after filing a report with Bucks County Children and Youth Social Services Agency, they discovered four more children inside.
One of the rooms had approximately two dozen rats in cages, according to the affidavit. Feces was found on the floor of another area of the home.
Authorities said medical evaluations concluded the children were “clinically underweight and malnourished.”
“Personal hygiene of the children was also found to be concerning, resulting in two of the children having to shave their hair due to severe matting,” according to a news release from the Pennridge Regional Police Department
