KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Police say they arrested a Kansas City teenager after her 2-year-old child and two other toddlers ate crack cocaine.
Police say 17-year-old Tasha Cole admitted that she left the children with a friend while she went out to sell drugs earlier this week. Jackson County prosecutors on Thursday charged Cole with four felony counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Court records show that she returned to find the youngsters playing with a plate where she had cut the cocaine.
After Cole told relatives what had happened, police said, one of them wanted the children to be taken to a hospital. At first Cole balked, but she took her son to a hospital when he had a seizure.
Court documents show that all three children tested positive for cocaine at Children's Mercy Hospital.

I have some unruly tenants I would like to have them evicted. How do I go about it?
It's time to kick them people out!! And here's how:
How to Evict a Tenant
Evicting a Tenant or Ending a Lease
1. Preheat grill to medium-high or preheat the broiler.
2. Combine Cheddar and Gruyere in a small bowl.
3. Gently mix beef, Worcestershire, paprika and pepper in a large bowl, preferably with your hands, without overworking. Shape into 8 thin, 4-inch-wide patties. Mound 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture on each of 4 patties, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Cover each with one of the remaining patties. Crimp and seal the edges closed.
4. To grill: Lightly oil the grill rack (see Tip). Grill the stuffed patties over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes per side for medium-well. (Be sure not to press the burgers as they cook or they'll split open and the cheese will ooze out.) To broil: Cover a broiler pan with foil and coat with cooking spray. Broil the stuffed patties in the upper third of the oven, about 4 minutes per side for medium-well. In either case, let the burgers stand for 5 minutes before serving.
