Mother shot twice with a Taser after she was arrested for leaving baby in car to go to tanning salon

A woman had to be shot with a Taser twice after she was arrested for leaving her seven-month-old daughter in her car while she went to a tanning salon.

Ashley Agerenza, 19, has been charged with child abuse, resisting arrest and battery of a police officer after an incident outside Extreme Tan and Smoothies in St Petersburg, Florida.

Police said she first took the child inside the salon, but was told she could not leave the baby while she had a tanning session.

She then took the child back out to her car, strapped her into the car seat and turned on the engine, before returning to the salon.

A witness called police after seeing the baby abandoned. The responding officer found the baby had almost pushed herself out of the seat and had been sick all over herself.

When confronted, Agerenza attacked the officer and was shot twice with a Taser before being arrested.

The baby was not harmed.

A post on Agerenza's Facebook page read: 'Wit my lil mama then i might go out for the first time yay! dk if I can leave her tho...

'So maybe just a drink wen she asleep. love my baby!'

GIRL ARRESTED AFTER TAKING THROWN OUT FOOD

a woman has been arrested after helping herself to some of the 3,000 pounds worth of food that a Tesco Express had thrown out. Sasha Hall is said to have taken some potatoes, waffles, pies and ham that she had found on the street, following a power cut at the testco in Great baddow, Essex.

sources say she was shocked as she was approached by police and arrested for Theft by Finding. the 21 year old is now facing trial later this month.

she said of the matter. 'It had been thrown out, so i thought i could put it to better use. But when the police came round i was so upset. They made me feel like a terrible criminal.

People would believe police officers have better things to be doing with their time than going after people up potato waffles from the street. its all been blow out of proportion by offices while they waste tax payers money.

A tesco spokesman said: 'We are assisting the police with their inquiries. We seek to minimize waste in all our stores and where possible will seek to reuse and recycle it'
