''A two-year-old boy was abandoned at a Goodwill store’s drop-off point in Southaven, Miss., on Monday morning, according to local police.
The child was found at 9:40 a.m. Monday alongside a change of clothes and a note. “His mother cannot take care of him anymore,” the note said, according to local station Fox 13.
The child was not wearing socks and the temperature outside was close to freezing.
Goodwill staff turned the boy over to police, and he was later placed with Child Protective Services (CPS).''
"The suspect “dropped the child off with a plastic bag containing a change of clothes and a note,” police said. Then he walked away.
Police announced on Monday afternoon that a suspect had been arrested in the case. They did not reveal the suspect’s identity or the nature of the potential charges.
They also told local media that they know the child’s name, though they did not release it.''
