Two people were arrested in San Bernardino after allegedly using a toddler's "sippy" cup as a meth pipe while the child was nearby, authorities said.
A sheriff's deputy initially went to a home in the 3000 block of Harrison Street on Thursday to serve a felony arrest warrant, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.
The deputy found a man and a woman smoking methamphetamine while a 2-year-old was in an adjoining room, said Cindy Bachman, a spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.
Deputies arrested Ronald Clayton Steel, 31, and Laticia Rose Williamson, 35, on suspicion of child endangerment and drug use. Steele was also arrested on suspicion of drug possession. Both were being held on $100,000 bail each, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.
The 2-year-old child was temporarily taken into protective custody before being released to the child's grandmother, Bachman said.
It was unclear if Steele or Williamson had an attorney.
