Cops: Pennsylvania woman let niece, 6, back out of snug spot

BEAVER, Pa. -- Police say a Pennsylvania woman endangered her 6-year-old niece by having the girl back the woman's car out of a tight parking spot, wrecking two other cars in the process.

Fifty-five-year-old Rebecca Beatty, of Aliquippa and her attorney have not returned calls on the charges she waived to Beaver County Court on Tuesday.

Police charged Beatty in June after she picked up her niece from a dance program at Ambridge Area High School.

The Beaver County Times reports Wednesday that Beatty found another car parked so close that she couldn't get in her vehicle. Police say that's when she had her niece back the car out.

Police say the child hit a parked car, pushing it over a curb until it hit another car parked on the street.
