In Adams County, Colorado, a one-month-old baby boy was discovered abandoned in a car seat in the median of Pecos Street on Christmas morning at around 9:20 a.m. The infant, clad only in a diaper, was found by a passerby who alerted authorities. The Adams County Sheriff's Office responded to the scene and the baby was taken to Children's Hospital as a precaution. The parents, Jarvis Sims, 42, and Christina Thurman, 33, were subsequently arrested and charged with felony child abuse. The incident occurred amid cold temperatures, with historical weather data indicating 34 to 37 degrees Fahrenheit in Denver at the time.
