A 17-month-old boy left unattended inside a hot, stuffy car for at least seven hours was found dead Tuesday afternoon.

The mother is employed as a waitress at a Hooters restaurant near Bell Road and Interstate 17, Phoenix police said.

She arrived at the restaurant at 10 am and worked until nearly 5 p.m. police said.

The baby was in a car seat in the backseat of a Honda Civic. The car has dark tinted windows.

Officials think that that made the boy invisible to people going in and out of the restaurant and a carwash next door. The car was parked in the front of the lot on Bell Road and about 20 feet from the Hooters patio seating area.

The mother walked to her parked car, unlocked the driver's door, sat in the vehicle and immediately realized that she had forgotten that her 17 month old child was in the back seat of her car, police said.

The mother immediately summoned help, but efforts by witnesses, police officers and fire fighters were unsuccessful and the child was pronounced dead, Phoenix police said.

"Temperatures hit nearly 90 degrees Tuesday, but the temperature inside the car reached more than 100 degrees," said Sgt. Joel Tranter, a Phoenix police spokesman.

Preliminary information released by Phoenix police says the mother was to drop the child off at child care on her way to work Tuesday morning, but for unknown reasons failed to do so.

Phoenix police investigators are conducting a death investigation at this time, police said.


This story hits a bit too close. Can you imagine the pain of coming back to your car to find your little ray of sunshine...

*shakes head*

Uhhh. Sure.

I bet the kid was shot. That's my guess.

I don't understand how you forget to drop your kid off at daycare, but I don't have kids...

Seems like a pretty important step in your morning routine.

Why is Darwin killing people in the future?! And how did he manage that? I thought he was dead. Smiley: frown

She worked at Hooters, the fact that she hadn't lit the baby on fire somehow in its first 17 months of life is quite an accomplishment.

At 17 months, my daughter was so unforgetable - I seriously just don't understand. Now I've had moments where for a very split second I thought that maybe I might forget her in the back seat when going to the grocery store, but it was a split second while I was parking the vehicle - engine not off, parking break not on, etc. etc.

I seriously don't think I could live with myself if I'd forgotten my daughter was in the back seat and she died because of my thoughtlessness. I'm not the suicidal type, but I think that might be the thing that pushes me to suicide.

I can see how it's possible to forget.. not the entire God damn day though.

A long night combined without much sleep and running late for work, it seems fairly easy to forget to drop your kid off in the hectic morning rush. But, it seems like you would either realize once you parked that there was a kid in the back or at some point during the day think about your child.

I'm sure the mother's near suicidal.

There have been times when I forgot the diaper bag when I dropped my kids off at daycare.

But there was one memorable time after a long night of child-connected hijinks, I was so tired and didn't realized that I still had the kids in the backseat when I got on the freeway to get to work. But the kids' chattering and laughter clued me in to "Hey! You forgot us humans in the backseat!"

Because I heard he has a flux capacitor.

This is why I don't have kids. I'm far too distractable.

Why is it always that in cases like these, the baby dies and the mother lives. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

a lot of car-baby deaths happened this summer in the STL area.

Back when i was like a few weeks old. My grandfather called my mother up to have her take him to work (his truck wouldn't start). He lived RIGHT down the road from use (like 300 yrds). Well it was like 4 am (my grandpa worked for the rail road), and my mom and g-pa were driving to where he had to go. He looked backed and asked "Where is eli?"

lmao.

He was pissed and made my mom turn around and go back for me (there were like 10min away). . . they pulled up and there i was..dead...oh wait i mean asleep in my car seat right next to the door, inside my house.

It wasn't hot that day...it was cold.

No. It should be "both of them dies". Face it, if the mother was this smart, chances are the baby is going to grow up and be a winner too. Genetics are a *****.

Once you actually have kids you will never EVER forget about them. It doesn't matter if your child is asleep or screaming, if you have had 3 hours of sleep, you won't forget.

Like other posts alluded to, this lady should promptly remove herself from the gene pool and save Arizona's tax payers some money so they don't have to raise her next little tax burden.

Forgetting to drop their kid happened around here once too. The father usually dropped the kid then the mother at work. But that day, the mother was late so he dropped her first and forgot about the sleeping kid because of their routine. If I remember correctly it was in winter and the kid suffered some frost toes and stuff but he's fine.

Holy **** captain stickler, do I need to put a disclaimer in every post? No real parent would forget their kid in a god damn car for 10 minutes, let alone 10 hours.

Get off your high horse you jackfaced dumbfuck.

Yes. It should read as follows: "I, Senjiow, am so full of **** I can taste it at the back of my throat. A throat that is chaffed from all the self righteous fellatio I do in a futile attempt at meaning something, to someone, who cares for the discarded. My posts reflect nothing but my worst qualities. Feel free to respond to my drivel while I'm in the other room beating my kids."

No real parent? You've got a lot of gumption to be talking **** about "real parents", don't you think?

Eh.. there's too many cases of this for me to believe that. Odds would suggest the lady wasn't the most responsible parent ever, but there's still a chance that it was an honest mistake.

And the whole working at Hooters thing doesn't mean much. I've dated two Hooters girls. One was the typical stereotype you'd picture working there.. the other is now in her second year of Med School with "flying colors" being an understatement. Routines are routines.. when something fUcks with one it can throw your entire day for a loop. This time might have just been a worst case scenario.

I'd still assume she was just a sh*tty parent though, forgetting the kid on the way to work is one thing, but to not have it cross your mind all day is another.

Yes. It should read as follows: "I, Senjiow, offer a differing opinion from Kaelesh, and even if it is right or wrong, needs to be put down because Kaelesh has very little self-esteem and needs to eThug someone online to make himself feel better."

Yes, asShole, I do have a lot of gumption to talk about real parents. Let's hope that you never get a divorce and have to deal with a bitter ex. People can be petty spiteful little wretches, as everyone of your posts prove. You need to take some remedial wood shop at a community college, learn to build a bridge, and then get the fuck over it you self-righteous arrogant little cunt.
