COLUMBUS, Ind. -- A toddler's phone call led to their mother getting arrested for an outstanding warrant in Columbus, Indiana Sunday.

The Columbus Police responded to a 911 call from the 2200 block of Sims Court. A dispatcher said it sounded like a child playing on the telephone.

Paris M. Mann, 29, lived at the apartment and had a Bartholomew County warrant for her arrest. 

When police got to the apartment, they confirmed that there were no problems that needed a 911 call, then took Mann into custody. 

The child is under the custody of a family member at the apartment.
