A 2-year-old and his 3-year-old brother were wandering the neighborhood Thursday afternoon in the area of Lehner Woods. Officers found the brothers were clothed in T-shirts and pajama pants, not winter clothes. Their home is on the other side of the neighborhood. Officers spoke to the children’s father and found that he was intoxicated. Police believe the boys let themselves out while their father was asleep. The father was arrested on child endangering charges and held at the Delaware County Jail. The boys were unharmed and released to their mother. Delaware County Children’s Services is investigating.

Two women were shoplifting at Wal-Mart Thursday afternoon.

An employee of a business on Pennsylvania Avenue received unwanted calls at work Thursday afternoon.
