In the mean time baby is dying from the heat. He's completely red and screaming wildly. After 20 mins cop calls for backup and paramedics arrive 10 mins later. Total time, 50 mins. Paramedics make an official determination that the baby's life is in danger so they tell the cop to give them a hand prying off the sun roof with their wrecker bars. Baby gets med treatment including a cold bath. He's now fine, except for the worried look on his face now when he's buckled in the car seat.

Your post made me feel ill. I can see that happening so easily. Maybe we should all buy cars with keyless entry....

" Your post made me feel ill. I can see that happening so easily."

That was my grandson Sammy. Ill would be a good description of how I felt when my daughter called me up crying and told the story after the fact. She should have called me first, even though I'm far away.

" Maybe we should all buy cars with keyless entry..."

The electronic locks are a problem. If the computer breaks, or the electronics fail, the door can't be opened. There's an extra key attached to the car now. The cop should have busted the window when ma and the others requested it. Sammy's life was clearly in immanent danger.
