A little girl has been hospitalized after she was found chewing on a bag of crack cocaine found outside a West Philadelphia Day Care.

Police report that the 3-year-old was found playing outside the Works of Learning Early Daycare when a worker noticed she had something in her mouth. Like anyone would, the worker came up to the girl and saw she was chewing on a bag of crack cocaine!

Can you imagine the horror?! As a former day care worker, I know I would go into full panic mode.

Luckily, although the girl did ingest some of the drug, she is currently being monitored at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. According to NBC Philadelphia, police are crediting the day care worker for acting quickly and saving the girls life.

Police are currently investigating how the little girl found the bag.
