AC Woman Accused Of Abandoning Four Children In Hotel

An Atlantic City woman is charged with abandoning four children in a hotel room last year and was captured recently by police. The Press of Atlantic City reports 29 year old Naayasia Torres allegedly left four children, ages 6, 4, 2 and 1, inside a room at the Flagship Hotel on North Maine Avenue alone for about six hours. Flagship staff told police Torres had not checked out of the room she shared with the children before the 11 a.m. deadline Feb. 5, the affidavit states. Staff visited the room, speaking to both the children and Torres, who purportedly said she was preparing to return to the hotel to retrieve the children but never did.
