A woman from Bridgeport is due in court next month after Milford police say she left her young children alone in a mall so she could go shopping.
It happened at the Connecticut Post Mall on Black Friday.
According to police, 30-year-old Hasenah Alessi left her kids, ages two and eight, in the food court while she went shopping in Macy's at the other end of the mall.
News 12 is told someone at the mall noticed the children sitting alone and called police.
