This story sounds like a TV show scene. A 18 year-old man was watching 3 of his friends kids (ages 4-11) in Kennewick when he was recognized by police. He took off, toward an apartment complex leaving the kids to fend for themselves on the sidewalk on a busy street.

The man was wanted for failing to appear in court over a gun charge.
