ALBANY — A 44-year-old woman stole her 3-year-old grandson's Christmas gifts and sold them for crack while she was supposed to be baby-sitting him, police said.

Andrea Ocasio was arrested early Saturday after her son came home at 3 a.m. to his North Lake Avenue apartment and found the door wide open. The 3-year-old was asleep on a couch by himself, Christmas presents were missing and Ocasio, who was supposed to be watching the boy, was gone.

The man called police and went outside where he saw Ocasio come out of a drug house down the road, city police said.
