Police in New York are investigating how kids got their hands on crack cocaine while at daycare.

A 4-year-old girl is in the hospital after putting it in her mouth.

Her mother immediately took her daughter to the hospital.

And tests confirm the girl had cocaine in her system.

The mother says her daughter is OK but says she could have died.

"She couldn't sit down, she was beyond bouncy, very loquacious, just all over the place, literally, talking to herself, looking in the mirror, saying she sees three of herself," said mother Sabrina Straker.

Daycare workers believe someone threw the cocaine over the fence to get rid of it.
