Cops: Mom left 3 kids under age 4 at hotel for up to 3 days

Pittsburgh police say a mother left three children under the age of 4 alone at a hotel for up to three days.

Thirty-two-year-old Tabatha Graczyk (GRAY’-chuk was jailed Monday on charges of endangering the children, who range in age from 8 months to 3 years old.

Police say the Allegheny County Office of Children, Youth and Families alerted investigators to the situation Sunday. Authorities say the children were found alone in a room at a Days Inn.

The children were taken to a hospital as a precaution.

Online court records don’t list an attorney for Graczyk, who was unable to post bond. She faces a preliminary hearing Aug. 31.
