Cops in Wildwood say a couple from Gloucester County has been arrested for, among other things, allegedly leaving a 3-month-old infant in a car while they were in a bar.

The scene unfolded around 1 AM Friday when officers were called to the 2700 block of Pacific Avenue for the report of an argument.

Police say 24-year-old Voshon Poe-Cerdan of West Deptford and 23-year-old Justina Wood of Swedesboro were yelling as part of a domestic dispute; their 3-month-old child was also at the scene.

During the developing investigation, it was determined that both Wood and Poe-Cerdan were under the influence of alcohol. Prior to police arrival on-scene, it was established, that they were patronizing a local retail alcohol beverage licensed premise, while they left their child unattended, in their motor vehicle, which was parked in a nearby parking lot.

Both Voshon Poe-Cerdan and Wood were charged with second-degree endangering the welfare of a child and obstruction.
