Baby dies in hot car
Ugh, these stories seem to pop up every summer. How on earth do you “accidentally” leave your baby in the car for over an hour?
It was the hottest day of the year. And the death was the region’s second in a week involving a young child who was apparently forgotten in a hot vehicle.
The boy’s frantic mother called police to their home in the community of Savannah, north of Little Elm, about 2:40 p.m., said Sgt. Roger Griggs, of the Denton County Sheriff’s office.
“The child was left in the car for at least an hour unattended,” Sgt. Griggs said. “The child was unconscious when the child was found by the mother.”
A helicopter flew the boy to Children’s Medical Center Dallas, where he was pronounced dead about 4 p.m., Sgt. Griggs said. The Dallas County medical examiner identified the child late Sunday as Markus Anthony Lewis.
