A tragic⁢ incident occurred in Houston, ⁢Texas, where a ⁣3-month-old‌ baby lost⁤ their life after being ​left⁤ unattended in a scorching hot car on a day with temperatures reaching 101 degrees.

According to reports, a ‌mother⁢ visited the Harris Center for Mental Health ⁤and ‍IDD on Tuesday, bringing her two children along. However, she only took⁤ her 4-year-old inside, leaving ‌the infant behind ⁣in the ⁢sweltering car.

Upon ⁤her return, the mother discovered that the 3-month-old‌ baby was not‍ breathing. She rushed ​the ⁣child into the mental health facility, where nurses attempted to perform CPR.

Emergency responders from the Houston ⁤police ​and fire department arrived at ‌the scene and made additional efforts to save the child’s life. Sadly, the baby was⁤ pronounced dead by doctors at a local hospital.

Houston ⁤Police⁢ Assistant Chief Yasar Bashir⁤ referred to the incident as an “avoidable”⁢ tragedy, emphasizing that leaving a child in a car, especially an⁢ infant, even for ⁤a moment, ‍is extremely ‌dangerous due to the rapid increase in body ⁣temperature.

“Houston gets very hot and under no circumstances‌ you should leave a child in a ‍car, not even for ‍a moment,” said Bashir. ⁤“Especially an infant or a child, the body temperature goes up ​very quickly.”

The⁢ Harris County medical examiner‌ will conduct an autopsy to determine the cause of death. ⁣It remains unclear ‍if any charges have⁢ been⁤ filed or how long the infant was left alone in the ⁤car.
