He almost falls up the stairs screaming mom and dad," said Theresa, whose son saw the couple.Theresa and her husband went outside to find a man and a woman unconscious, possibly dying, from an apparent overdose. The woman's 2-year-old son was also inside the car."We didn't touch them because we didn't know if there were needles in the car, and we didn't want to, we just grabbed the baby out. He was in the back seat. He was trying to get out. He was walking around in the car, and the car was running," Theresa said.Another video clip showed firefighters on the scene a few minutes later, saving their lives, administering Narcan which reverses the effects of an opioid overdose.Victoria Warzyniakowski, 27, and Matthew Huber, 41, both from West Allis, fully recovered and were later convicted of child neglect. Huber was also convicted of felony drug possession.In a bottle from Huber's pocket, police found more than 200 pills -- nearly all of them opioids.Theresa and her family took the baby inside and fed him, caring for him until child protective services picked him up."I thank God that it happened here, because what if they were driving, or you know, there could've been an accident. The little boy could've, anything could've happened, so I thank God that it happened here in front of our house. It's a horrible thing, but I really thank God that it happened here," Theresa said.About 150 people have already died this year in Milwaukee County alone from opioid overdoses.Causes of death in Milwaukee County from 2011-2016By state law, WISN 12 News is unable to find out if the toddler, the woman's son, is back in her custody.(WISN 12 News has learned since the story aired that Huber died last week from an apparent overdose.)
