'A mother allegedly let her four-year old son chug a bottle of beer and fed her 10-month-old daughter booze in a Connecticut playground.

Juliette Dunn, 29, has been charged with two counts of risk of injury to a child and two counts second-degree assault after a neighbour saw her in the playground and complained to police on June 28, the Connecticut Post reports.

A 33-year-old woman who was with Ms Dunn in the playground, Lisa Jefferson, was arrested on the same charges.

The children were taken to Bridgeport Hospital where they both tested positive for alcohol. The baby girl also tested positive for cocaine.

Witnesses told police they had seen Ms Jefferson hand the beer to her friend's son and order him to scull it, calling him an "alcoholic" when he finished.'
