WARNER ROBINS — A Warner Robins woman has been charged with murder in the heat-related death of a 3-year-old left inside a car.

WMAZ-TV reports (http://bit.ly/oOnRWH) that authorities have also charged Shelia Henderson with child cruelty, involuntary manslaughter and reckless conduct.

Police say Henderson was babysitting Andrew Calloway when she left him in a hot car for more than an hour last week. Investigators say the child died of heat stroke.

Henderson was being held at the Houston County jail. It was unclear Tuesday whether she had an attorney.
