Police say burglar brought her daughter, 2, on job

[October 21, 2010]  MUSKEGON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) -- Police say it was "bring your daughter to work" day for a woman they said took her 2-year-old girl with her when she broke into a western Michigan home. Police in Muskegon County's Muskegon Township said they arrested the woman and the woman's mother after Saturday's burglary.

Twenty-six-year-old Nicole Bugajski and 51-year-old Kimberly Mahnke were arraigned Monday on home invasion charges.

Police told The Muskegon Chronicle an elderly man who lived at the house unsuccessfully tried to block the women's vehicle with his pickup truck.

Police stopped the women's vehicle nearby and found Bugajski's daughter inside. She's now in protective custody.

No one answered the phone Tuesday night at the women's home in Egelston Township.
