(AP) GREENFIELD, Ind. - A baby girl, just a few months old, has died, and a 16-month-old is hospitalized, in separate incidents near Indianapolis in which children were found trapped in cars during record-setting 105-degree heat.The baby who died was found by police this afternoon in Greenfield, about 25 miles west of Indianapolis. Police say it appears she had been left in the car for "an extended period of time." Police aren't providing further information, saying the investigation is continuing.
Another child, also in Indiana, was rescued when police were alerted and broke out the car window. The 16-month-old began having seizures when brought into an air-conditioned place to cool off. At this time, there is no update on her condition.
Normally, I roll my eyes when I hear someone say "then do it to them so they learn their lesson" but in this case... I think it may be appropriate. Pets and kids are dying because self-centered jackasses don't care about their misery and danger. Unforgivable and completely preventable. Instead of jail time, maybe these useless bags of crap should have to endure what they allow other living creatures to endure, pain and misery, seizures, cracked skin and burns, and eventually death.
