According to foreign media such as Daily Star, a man living in Castejon, Spain's eastern coastal city, found his 2-year-old daughter unconscious in the car and rushed her to a hospital on the 5th (local time). But the child finally died.
The child's father reportedly forgot to take his daughter to the nursery before going to work.
The child was left in the car from around 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The child was discovered only after his father had finished his work. An autopsy revealed that the child's cause of death was related to fever.
Police have launched a manslaughter investigation against the man.
Meanwhile, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states that "Children's body temperature rises three to five times faster than adults."If you leave your child in the car in hot weather, your body temperature can rise quickly and dangerous situations can occur in an instant." he warned.
