Washington County prosecutors Monday charged a 53-year-old Portland grandmother with criminally mistreating and endangering the life of her 10-month-old granddaughter after police say the baby tested positive for fentanyl.

Tigard police said an officer was patrolling the Tigard Plaza Shopping Center on Friday at about 10:30 p.m. when he happened upon an unlicensed Jeep that was parked with its engine running. A woman in the driver’s seat appeared to be passed out with drug paraphernalia and a powdery white substance, later determined to be fentanyl, in the car.
