LEXINGTON, KY (WAVE) - A babysitter was arrested after some passers-bys found him playing on the roof with the toddler he was watching.

The person who showed police the photos of the two on the roof chose to remain anonymous. He said he first noticed Shandrick White dancing on the roof with a child on his shoulders, then he started lifting the toddler and spinning them around in the air.

Lexington Police PIO Sherelle Roberts said, "They were able to get the child away from Mr. White. He's actually not the parent, just someone who was watching the child."

Neighbors were not sure who the 15-month-old child belongs to, but they said they have seen the child before.

White is charged with wanton endangerment.
