A Sunrise, Florida, mother is facing criminal charges after allegedly leaving her two young children in an Uber vehicle for hours on the night of February 13, 2026, telling the driver she’d “be back in three minutes,” a promise she never kept.
According to the Sunrise Police Department’s probable‑cause affidavit, Emily Sabogal, 32, called an Uber with her children at a shopping plaza along West Commercial Boulevard in the city, holding a cup the driver believed contained alcohol.
