Anna Kournikova's mother arrested

The Palm Beach Daily News reports the mother of tennis star Anna Kournikova has been arrested on a charge of neglect of her 5-year-old son.

Alla Vadimirovna Kournikova, 46, was arrested yesterday after a passerby found her son, Allan, outside the family's home, the newspaper says.

According to a police report, the boy told investigators he jumped out of a second-story window bare-footed after being left at home alone.

"The boy exited the residence through a second story balcony window and jumped 15 feet to a crushed stone walkway," the report says. "He then entered the pool in the back yard and subsequently walked out of the front yard to the sidewalk which is adjacent to Seabreeze Avenue."

The charge is a third-degree felony.

"The child stated he hung by his hands before letting go," the report said, and added that Kournikova told police she left her son "awake and sitting on the couch watching television at the time she left the residence, and that he did not want to go with her to run errands."

The report said the boy's feet and lower back were bruised. На фотографию можно посмотреть по ссылке:
