SALEM, N.H. Nov 10 2009– A Sandown, N.H., woman was charged with endangering the welfare of a child after leaving her infant in a car in a store parking lot while she returned an item, police said.

Police responded to the parking lot of the Macy’s store at the Mall at Rockingham Park on Friday on a report of an infant in a vehicle. Police said the child was left in a running, unlocked vehicle with the interior light left on.

A page for the registered owner of the car was put out by mall security, and a short time later, a woman pushing a shopping cart with another baby exited Macy’s and approached the officers.

Police said the woman was identified as Kelly Acerra, 34. She told police she was the mother of the infant and said she was making a return and didn’t want to take the sleeping baby inside with her, police said.

Acerra was released, pending an arraignment in Salem District Court.
