Sgt. Dave Lemieux said police expect to lay charges against the woman and Children’s Aid officials will also be investigating.

Lemieux said that at about noon Monday an employee at the Jean Coutu drugstore in Rockland found the baby in “physical distress” due to the extreme heat. At the time, the outside temperature felt like 41 with the humidex rating.

“This lady took it upon herself to open the car door and retrieve the child and around that time the mother came out,” said Lemieux. The mother then became angry with the woman who came to the child’s aid.

“She was questioning the lady as to why she had her baby. I guess the mother was somewhat irrational, figuring the lady was trying to abduct her child. The other concern, but in this case it was a blessing, was that the car doors were left unlocked,” said Lemieux.

The mother then left the scene. Police were called and provided with a licence plate number. Police have since identified a suspect, but have not yet found her. In addition to finding the mother, police also want to ensure that the baby, who is estimated to be about two months old, is in good condition.

Lemieux said the life of a child that age can become endangered in a matter of minutes in “extreme” temperatures.

“That’s extreme conditions out there right now and the heat inside the vehicle is increasing much more significantly. It becomes a life-threatening situation, there is no doubt about it,” said Lemieux.
He said that in similar situations in the past people have been charged with criminal negligence causing bodily harm.

“I don’t know what would possess anybody to leave a child — even for two or three minutes would be excessive in these conditions,” he said. “You can imagine the heat generated inside a car on a day like today.

It’s dangerous for anything that is breathing.”

Monday’s temperature peaked at 32C in the afternoon, but it felt like 40-plus with the humidity.

The humidex rating in Ottawa ranged from 40 to 42 between noon and 4 p.m. Monday. Environment Canada issued a humidex advisory

Monday evening, warning that the sticky weather will continue today.
“With a hot and humid air mass in place over Southern Ontario, humidex values climbed in the low 40s through (Monday) afternoon and early evening,” the agency reported. “Eastern Ontario will continue to have sunny skies giving warmer temperatures and humidex values in the 40s by late (Tuesday) morning.”

2009年8月14日，美国加州一位39岁、名字为：Sian Liao 的妈妈，将2岁女儿、6岁儿子，留在阳光下的Parking Lot上的车内，当时室外气温41.7 °C，被警方逮捕、起诉，周二将上庭！

Mom charged; kids left in car's 107-degree heat

08-17) 18:09 PDT FREMONT -- A Fremont woman was charged Monday with two counts of misdemeanor child endangerment for allegedly leaving her two children in a car where the temperature reached 107 degrees, authorities said.

Sian Liao, 39, was arrested after passers-by saw her 2-year-old daughter and 6-year-old son in her Toyota Corolla in the parking lot of the Safeway store at Fremont and Washington boulevards about 3:30 p.m. Friday, police said.

The girl was crying, and both children were drenched in sweat, said Gina Shelley, 37, whose husband, Bradley, first saw the children inside the car. The Toyota was in the sun, and the rear windows were open only a crack, said Shelley, who called 911.

"It was just a shock to see the children left in the car in such hot weather," Shelley said. "I feel bad that this mother is potentially in trouble now. Certainly I wouldn't want someone to lose their kids. She made a bad choice, really, for the kids."

Liao came running from the store as police arrived, Shelley said. The youngsters were treated at the scene and released to a family member, police Sgt. Chris Mazzone said.

Liao told police that her children had been sleeping and that she hadn't wanted to wake them, authorities said.

Officers determined that she had left the children for more than half an hour, Mazzone said. She was arrested and later posted bail.

A woman who answered the phone at Liao's home said the children were doing well but declined further comment.

Liao is to appear in court Tuesday.

2009年8月2日，加拿大VANCOUVER一位父亲，将两个孩子【一个2岁、另外一个仅4个月】，留在闷热的车内，自己在附近的Saloon饮酒，孩子被紧急送往医院抢救！

Babies left in sweltering car as dad drinks - Winnipeg Free Press

VANCOUVER -- Two sweat-drenched B.C. babies were rushed to hospital early Saturday after being found in soiled diapers, locked in a minivan for several hours while their father was spotted drinking at a nearby saloon."I think they could have died -- there are so many things that could have happened to them,"

Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said on Saturday. "This is an extreme example of what you would classify as ignorance -- it's common sense you wouldn't leave kids in a car even for several minutes. It's appalling."

The children -- aged four months and two years -- were apprehended by Ministry for Children and Family Development officials after being treated for dehydration at hospital.

Their last reported condition was stable.

MacDonald said uniformed members stationed outside the Fat Pig Saloon -- a temporary bar set up at the annual Abbotsford Agrifair and Rodeo -- were alerted by a distraught woman, who said she heard a man in the bar telling others he had to check on his children at about 12:30 a.m.

Officers followed the man to a minivan parked in a nearby lot where they made the shocking discovery and called paramedics.

"He opens up the minivan and all they can hear is the wails of the two kids," MacDonald said. "Our members can see the kids are in distress and have soiled themselves. All the (van's) windows were shut and the van was locked."

Local freelance videographer Kevin MacDonald shot footage of a police officer holding the screaming four-month-old in his arms and a paramedic attended to the other distraught tot.

"It was probably the most disturbing story I have ever covered," Kevin Macdonald told radio station CKNW. "It looked like the kids had been in there a very long time. Both the kids were drenched in sweat."

Police suspect the kids were inside the van for hours.

"Based on our conversations with the male and patrons of the saloon, we formed the opinion that the kids had been there for several hours," MacDonald said.

According to Environment Canada, the temperature in Abbotsford at 5 p.m. was 29 C and went down to 20 C by the time the kids were found. Abbotsford is just east of Vancouver.

Puppy rescued from sweltering car, owner charged
By Jim Patten jpatten@eagletribune.com

LAWRENCE — An 8-week-old Rottweiler appeared lifeless when it was pulled from a parked car on Union Street Wednesday afternoon, and its owner has been charged with cruelty to an animal, police said.

Animal Control Officer Ellen Bistany said the puppy was left in a small crate inside the car on that hot and humid day with the windows rolled down about 4 inches.

Bistany and officers Chad Lawlor and Stacey Griffin responded to a call about 3 p.m. that a puppy was left inside a sweltering car outside 15 Union St.

Bistany reached inside and opened the door to get to the puppy, police said.

According to a report written by Lawlor, the puppy looked lifeless when Bistany got it out.

The puppy was weak and did not have enough energy to either lift his head or whimper, police said.

Bistany gave the puppy water and began to soak him to cool him off.
She took the puppy to Johnson Animal Hospital, where veterinarians determined the puppy had a temperature of 106.5 degrees. The temperature should have been 102 degrees, police said.

The outside temperature was 84 degrees and the humidity was about 64 percent, police said.

Police towed the car and about 3:30 p.m. the owner of the car and puppy, identified by police as Kathleen Acevedo, 24, of 489 S.

Broadway, came to the station to report her car and puppy missing.
Acevedo told police she had parked the car after lunch, about 1 p.m., and left the puppy in the crate in her car with the windows opened about 4 inches. She told police she had good intentions and her boyfriend was supposed to pick up the puppy but she never heard from him, police said.

She discovered the car missing when she left work for the day.
Acevedo was arrested and charged with cruelty to an animal.

While she was at the station her boyfriend arrived and told police the puppy was Acevedo's. He told police he was supposed to pick the puppy up at 2:30 p.m., but had to work later than planned, police said.

During an interview with Bistany, Acevedo agreed to sign over custody of the dog to the Lawrence Police Department.

During her arraignment yesterday in Lawrence District Court, Acevedo was released without bail and ordered to return to court Sept. 16 for a pretrial conference. She faces up to five years in prison or two and a half years or jail. The puppy is being held by the Lawrence police Animal Control Division pending the outcome of the investigation, police said.

Baby OK after being found in hot Ont. car

The baby was in a car in the parking lot outside the drug store where Annie Landreville works. The child's mother was seen leaving a nearby ice cream shop. (Rebecca Zandbergen/CBC)

An infant reportedly left alone in a hot, unlocked car in Rockland, Ont., at lunchtime Monday as the temperature soared to about 30 C has been located and is doing fine, police said Tuesday morning. "We spoke with the mother, and the officers that attended checked out the child and it was OK," said Ontario Provincial Police Const. Guy Prevost. Police said the baby girl was three or four months old.

The OPP and the Children's Aid Society are continuing to investigate the incident on Laurier Street in the town, which is about 40 kilometres east of Ottawa.

OPP Const. Bernard Montpetit said the mother of the child was very emotional Tuesday morning, and it was "not a good time" for police to get a statement from her. They would get involved further if the Children's Aid Society requests that they do so, he added.

So far, charges of negligence or abandonment are unlikely, Montpetit said.

"What we think is [it was] just a parent that was in a hurry and kind of lack of judgment and basically that's it."

Landreville said the baby was crying forcefully, but the sound was muffled as though the windows of the car were rolled up. (CBC)

The case had been reported to police by Annie Landreville, who works at the Jean Coutu pharmacy next to the parking lot where the baby was found.

Landreville had been heading to a restaurant when she heard crying, she told Radio-Canada, CBC's French-language service, Monday evening.

The baby was crying forcefully, but the sound was muffled, as though the windows were rolled up, she recalled, so she went to check on the child.

She found the infant, which she guessed was a baby girl less than two months old, in a car seat in the back of a car.
"She was crying, and sweating and she was all red in the face," Landreville said in French.

High reached 32.9 C

At first, Landreville had intended to just write down the licence plate of the car and call police. But as she started walking away, she felt she couldn't just leave the baby as the temperature was about 30 C, but felt much higher with the humidity. According to Environment Canada, a high of 32.9 C was measured in Ottawa Monday.

Landreville went back to the car and opened the door, which was unlocked, undid the buckle on the child's car seat and picked her up.

At that point, a woman came out of a nearby ice cream shop and confronted her, telling her it's not her business to take other people's children.

"I told her, 'You have no right to leave a child in a car when it's above 40 degrees,'" Landreville recalled.

The woman demanded the baby back, Landreville handed her over, the woman drove away, and Landreville called police.

Paramedics told CBC News that when the outside temperature is 30 degrees with a humidex of 40, a baby left inside a parked car can die in as little as 10 minutes.
