WINCHESTER, Tenn. -- A young girl was found wandering near a busy road eating wood, said Franklin County police.

Now her mother, Sheena Trull, is charged with child abuse, neglect and endangerment. She told police she put her two children in bed, then fell asleep.

Police said the 2½-year-old girl climbed out an open window and fell about 5 feet on top of two bicycles.

Witnesses said she was cold, wet, wearing a dirty diaper and chewing on a piece of wood.

Trull's two children are in state custody.
