Police have charged two men with injury to a child for showing toddlers how to 'get high.'


WATAUGA -- Watauga Police officers who were searching the home of a burglary suspect a week ago found something much worse than stolen goods. They found evidence of toddlers to 'getting high.'

Accordign to the Watauga Police Department, officers found a video tape on Feb. 22 in a camera seized from a home in the 6000 block of Hickory Hill in Watauga. The lengthy tape shows two men encourage a 2-year-old and a 5-year-old boy to 'get high.'

Police said suspects Vanswan Polty, 18, and Demetris McCoy, 17, badgered the little boys into smoking a blunt, or marijuana cigar. The boys, who are McCoy's nephews, were removed from the home by Child Protective Services, a spokesperson said.

The boys' mother told police she was asleep in another part of the home and was unaware of what was happening.

McCoy and Polty face multiple charges of injury to a child. Watauga Police said the boys' mother could also face charges.
