A two-year-old boy died Friday in the Israeli town of Yehud after his mother, rushing to prepare for Shabbat, “forgot” him in her car for about 40 minutes while she shopped inside a store for Shabbat items.
According to a report in the Jerusalem Post, Magen David Adom paramedics tried unsuccessfully to revive the chid, who was unresponsive, had no pulse, and had burns from the metal on his car seat.
The child was rushed to Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer and was pronounced dead. The cause of death is reportedly heat prostration and asphyxiation.
