Detroit police responding to a break-in call Thursday morning on
the city's west side found a 10-year-old boy and his 10-month-
old sister home alone.  Police said the boy called them just
after 5 a.m. when he woke up to find the family's 60-inch TV and
their mother both missing.  The children weren't hurt but police
said no adults were in the home with them.  Local 4 was there as
an officer put the siblings into a patrol car and took them to a
police station.  Just after 9 a.m., the children's mother showed
up at the house.  Police said she told them she had left her
children with her sister, who couldn't be found.  It wasn't
immediately clear where the mother had been.  It hasn't yet been
decided if neglect charges would be brought against the mother.
The father of the 10-month-old picked up both children at the
police station.  Police are investigating whether the house was
broken into or if the TV was removed from the home on purpose.
