2 charged after unsupervised toddlers hit by car, seriously injured, High Point police say

HIGH POINT, N.C. (WGHP) — Two adults have been charged after unattended children were injured in a crash.

According to a High Point police report, on Wednesday a car was driving on Model Farm Road when two “wandering” toddlers “darted into the road.”

The toddlers were both hit by the car, and the report indicates one of the children may have been dragged a short distance, causing road rash on the side of the victim’s body. The other child was knocked to the side and sustained “severe head trauma.”

They were taken to Brenner Children’s Hospital.

The driver was not charged, but the High Point Police Department said that “the two juveniles were left unattended and wandered off, which contributed to the crash” and that two adults have been charged in connection to the children being left unsupervised.

Alyssa Ismail, 23, and Naima Naz, 33, were charged with felony child neglect with serious bodily injury.
