RICHMOND — State child welfare officials on Thursday were granted temporary custody of two young brothers who were left in a sweltering pickup for eight hours outside their home.
Ivan Noyola, 2, and Izrahel Noyola, 1, were pulled from the truck about 1 p.m. Monday. Police said their mother, Sandra Mendoza, 20, left them unattended in the truck and fell asleep in her home in the 3200 block of Rychlik in Rosenberg.
During a hearing Thursday, Child Protective Services investigator Collette Jones told the court Mendoza said she had been drinking vodka and beer at a family gathering on Sunday night.
Jones said Mendoza has left the children in her truck with the air conditioning running on several occasions when she did not want to wake them up.
Jones said the younger child is expected to be released from the hospital Friday. The older boy is in serious condition.
Associate Judge Walter Armatys granted the state temporary custody and also declared Mendoza and the father, Jesus Noyola, indigent and appointed attorneys to represent them.

ROSENBERG, Texas -- It's another case of children being left alone in a hot car, but this story may have a better ending thanks to the efforts of two neighbors.
Two Rosenberg women may have saved the lives to two small boys, a 1-year-old and a 2-year-old, after their mother left them in the car for several hours on Monday morning.
Investigators say 20-year-old Sandra Mendoza told them she had been out on Sunday night and returned home at 5 a.m. Monday.
Police say Mendoza forgot to take the two boys out of the truck, and when she woke up several hours later she found them unresponsive.
Norma Sierra was one of the neighbors who rushed to help the mother, performing CPR on one of the toddlers.
"A person like that doesn't deserve to have kids. She couldn't take care of them," said Sierra in an interview with FOX 26 News.
Mendoza is now charged with two counts of injury to a child.
The little boys remain in the hospital. Doctors say one of them has internal injuries to his organs. full story my fox

I have always heard if you do something 28 times it becomes a habit.
Everybody when you get out of a car look in your back seat every time you get out of car. Even if you know you don't have the kids with you. I always check my car seat even when my son is in school.
I know this is a little off topic but, this has been happening way too much
Maybe the car manufactures could make a warning on cars like the buzzing when you leave your lights on or some cars say door ajar. Maybe when you get the keys out of the car or when you open your door It could say Don't forget your kids Don't forget your kids
