Teen suffocates after being locked in hot car
A French 13-year-old died after his parents left him locked in a sweltering hot car while on vacation in the Caribbean. It was some sort of high security vehicle which can’t be unlocked/opened from the inside. We would think “security” would mean keeping people from getting in, not out.
The boy had struggled violently to escape from the locked car, slashing at the upholstery with scissors and hitting the reinforced windows, a police spokesman said.
He added: “There were signs in the car that he had fought to get out, but it was a very high security new model car that can not be opened from the inside.
“As the sun rose in the morning, the temperature would have risen to 50C and he must have passed out from heat exhaustion.”
