Two people have been arrested after a toddler was found alone at a busy junction at night.
The young girl, believed to be aged between three and five, was found in the Wakefield Road area of Dalton, Huddersfield, last night.
West Yorkshire Police said in a statement: ‘A report was received at 6:51pm this evening of a young child in the street in the Dalton area.
‘The child was taken to a place of safety and house to house enquiries made in the local area.
‘The child has now been identified, and enquiries are ongoing into the circumstances of the incident.
‘Two people have been arrested as part of this investigation and are currently in police custody.’
This comes after a toddler was found wandering the streets alone in Wales.
The boy, who is believed to be around two or three-years-old, was found by somebody in Newport just before 7am on March 20.
The kid was then given back to his parents. There is no suggestion these incidents are linked.
