Milwaukee County Sheriff\'s Office MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A Milwaukee woman has been criminally charged after police say she stole a day care van with four children still inside.
Investigators say on Dec. 16, 27-year-old Katelyn Librizzi took the running van near Appleton and Burleigh while the driver stepped away.
