The search is on for a woman accused of leaving her children in a hot car, while she went gambling. Madera's deputy district attorney says 29-year-old Ginnie Lee of Fresno is pregnant and was found in possession of meth.

Lee and her husband Fouchoy Saephan were taken into custody Monday, after their 10-month-old and and 2-year-old daughters were found suffering from heat exhaustion while the couple gambled at Chukchansi Casino.

The Madera County Sheriff's department is offering a $100,000 dollar warrant for her arrest. Authorities believe she may be headed to Atwater. Lee is wanted for willful cruelty to a child and for felony drug possession as well.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crimestoppers at 498-STOP.
