BREMERTON — An 8-month-old boy has been removed from his mother after being left naked in a restroom.

Police say the 20-year-old woman was shooting pool.

Police say another woman found the boy in the Bremerton Lanes bowling alley restroom Friday night. She waited more than half an hour for the mother to return, then called 911 to report an abandoned baby.

Officers wrote that the baby appeared to be well-fed but was naked and had raised, red, pinhead-sized marks all over his body, as well as severe diaper rash.

Others at the bowling alley say the mother often left her baby naked in his stroller while she played pool.

The baby's grandmother told police the marks on the child were probably flea bites. The baby was turned over to Child Protective Services.
