According to Fox5NY, Essiah Miller was found safe and sound, if a little hungry, at a supermarket in the borough of Queens on Wednesday night, asking for food.

The little girl walked into Three Brothers Meat Market in the Far Rockaway neighborhood around 6:30 p.m. An employee at the store contacted police after realizing that the child was alone.

Cops arrived and discovered that Essiah had been dropped off at her home by a day care worker, but an adult was not at home, and the child eventually wandered off in search of food.

Trimeka Crum, 35, was arrested and charged in the case.

Essiah, who was otherwise in good health, was handed over to the care of her guardian, an aunt.
