'Tragic Situation' | HCSO: 9-Year-Old Child Dies After Being Left in Hot Car with Water and Windows Cracked
VALLS, TARRAGONA, SPAIN, JUL 2 – Five babies have died in hot cars in the past nine days, with children overheating three to five times faster than adults, according to Kids and Car Safety.
- A 9-year-old girl tragically passed away after spending several hours alone inside a vehicle at an industrial site in Galena Park while her mother was working nearby.
- The mother knowingly left the child in the car with cracked windows and water during her shift starting around 6 a.m., and was later detained for questioning.
- Doctors and safety advocates warn that cars can heat up about 20 degrees in 10 minutes, causing children's core temperatures to rise rapidly and damage organs.
- Amber Rollins suggests keeping a stuffed animal in the backseat, then placing it in the front passenger seat whenever you secure your child in their car seat to serve as a reminder that your baby is in the car.
- The incident highlights dangers of leaving children alone in vehicles and underscores calls for vigilance and immediate 911 calls if children or pets are left inside cars.
