Workers at a cafe in the station saw the boy, between 5 and 7, and the woman eating nearby on Wednesday evening. They began to worry later when he ran into their kitchen alone and they realized the woman was nowhere in sight, said Adrienne Garrett, supervisor at Cafe Crepe.
Garrett said she and other workers looked for the woman to no avail but she wandered back about 30 minutes later, prompting one worker to tell her that she should be taking care of her child.
“We asked her to come back but she literally walked out the front door,” Garrett said.
