Another Child Left In Car/Alabama

Authorities say a man hired to repossess a vehicle got more than he bargained for Thursday afternoon when he not only picked up a car but an unexpected passenger.

Officials with the Franklin County Sheriff's Office were called to a convenience store just south of Russellville on U.S. 43 around noon Thursday.

Reports indicate a man hired to repossess a car had picked it up at the store when the driver went inside the business.

What the repo man didn't realize, authorities said, was the woman's small child was in a car seat in the backseat of the car.

Deputies said the repo driver said when he started pulling off, he saw the woman running out of the store and then he noticed the small child in the back seat and immediately pulled back around to the store.

Department officials said the repo man ended up repossessing the car, but did give the woman and her child a ride to their house.
