Daniel Barger, 27, of 102 N. High St., Greenville, Thursday waived his preliminary hearing before District Justice William L. Fagley, Greenville.

Greenville-West Salem Township police charged Barger with endangering the welfare of a child after his four-year-old son was spotted about 4 a.m. March 30 wandering on Clarksville Street, about a half mile from Barger's home. Police said a Hermitage woman picked up the boy and took him to the Greenville police station.

Barger was released after posting $5,000 unsecured bond. The boy is in the custody of his mother.
