amid a dangerous and unrelenting heat wave, police said.
When the mother and toddler returned to the car sometime later, getting ready to leave, she found her baby unresponsive inside. It was unclear how long the child was left unattended in the vehicle and whether it was intentional or by mistake, police said. "Houston gets very hot and under no circumstances you should leave a child in a car, not even for a moment," Bashir said during a press conference on Tuesday evening. "Especially an infant or a child, the body temperature goes up very quickly"Authorities could bring charges depending on what the investigation reveals, according to Bashir, who noted that both parents are being cooperative with detectives.
