Jastrzębie‑Zdrój mother detained for child endangerment with 2.6 ‰ blood alcohol
On 5 August 2026, police in Jastrzębie‑Zdrój responded to a report from a child's father that the mother, a 41‑year‑old resident, was caring for her three children while heavily intoxicated. Officers found the woman with a blood‑alcohol level of 2.6 ‰ and her two daughters, aged six and seven, in a disordered apartment; a 14‑year‑old son later returned to the home.
The children were immediately taken into the care of their father, and the incident was documented and forwarded to a family court for further action. Local authorities emphasized that supervising minors while intoxicated constitutes severe negligence and endangers the health and safety of the children.
