Authorities in Texas say a woman was chatting on Facebook Messenger last week while her eight-month-old daughter drowned in a bathtub, where she had been left unattended and forgotten.
Cheyenne Stuckey, of Azle, Texas, was booked into the Parker County Jail on Wednesday on one count of injury to a child stemming from the tragic incident that took place a week earlier.
Stuckey, who has four children, told investigators with the Parker County Sheriff's Office that on June 13, she placed her youngest daughter, Zayla Hernandez, in the tub with the water running and left her unsupervised 'for only a couple of minutes.'
When she went to check on the baby later, she found Zayla floating face-down in the water, reported CBS DFW.
Stuckey told officials she tried to revive her baby but 'did not know how.'
Deputies responded to Stuckey's home in the 1500 block of Reno Road after getting a report of an unresponsive child, reports the Daily Mail.
