SALINAS, Calif. —
Two parents were arrested in Salinas, California after they
"hotboxed" their car with marijuana smoke while their 1-year-old
daughter was inside the car, police said Wednesday.

"Hotboxing" is a slang term for filling a vehicle with thick
marijuana smoke to maximize the drug's first-hand and second-
hand effects.

The parents were identified by police as 23-year-old Faustino
Matias and 22-year-old Claudia Campos.

Their Honda was reported to police as suspicious Tuesday evening
while it was parked at Natividad Creek Park.

Matias rolled the window down when a police officer approached
the car, and "a heavy cloud of marijuana smoke bellowed from
inside the car," police said.

The officer observed an infant in the backseat. Paramedics had a
hard time waking up the baby, and the infant was taken to a
hospital, police said.

Monterey County Child Protective Services agents took custody of
the baby. The parents were booked into jail on suspicion of
child endangerment and child cruelty.
