Saudi baby forgotten in car dies

A three-year-old Saudi girl suffocated to death after her father forgot her in the car for nearly three hours, a newspaper in the Gulf kingdom reported on Sunday.

The man told police he went for shopping and left his daughter in the car, thinking she was at home, the Arabic language daily ‘Al Watan’ said.

It said the man rushed his daughter to hospital in the western town of Medina but doctors found that she was already dead because of soaring summer temperatures.
