And the Worst Father of the Year Award goes to..

Arthur Fullard is in a great position to take home Columbus’ Worst Father of the Year Award after leaving his three-year-old beneath a pile of garbage in the back of a running vehicle.

Police found the car idling in an alley between E 15th Ave. and E 16 Ave. in the campus area on Sunday. Just as they were about to walk away, they noticed a tiny hand reach up through the rubbish, reports NBC4i. That’s when they discovered the small child who had just woken up from a nap.

Where was Fullard? Oh, wandering off in the alley. He was picked up for child endangerment, of course, and also heroin possession. This guy had several warrants out in multiple jurisdictions, reports NBC4i.

The child is safe in Children’s Services.
