So hard to find a sitter

Police in Albuquerque, NM, say a woman apparently took her young children along during a string of robberies.

Susie Zapata, 23, left her kids -- aged 1 and 4 -- sleeping in the car during the robbery of a pizzeria Tuesday, police said. Zapata's mother, Maria Sanchez, and another woman allegedly participated in the holdup, and Sanchez abandoned her grandchildren when she fled from police.

Authorities say the women may be responsible for five other robberies in the past six weeks. They were charged with a bunch of crimes after Tuesday's arrests.
