Officers with the Pennridge Regional Police Department responded to the 600 block of Roseann Lane on the afternoon of Apr. 23 for a report of two minors entering an abandoned trailer, according to a police report filed on May 19. Police found two girls, 12 and 14, who appeared unkempt and lived in a trailer next door.
Out of concern for the girls, the officers requested from their parents, Shawn and Crystal Robertson, to see their living arrangements. The home was”in obvious disrepair and disarray,” the report says.
