Modiin Illit: 4-year-old found dead in car

Boy found unconscious in back of parked car; MDA paramedics pronounce him dead at the scene

A four-year-old boy was found unconscious in the back of a parked car in Modiin Illit Thursday.

 

Magen David Adom paramedics who arrived at the scene had no choice but to pronounce him dead.

 

According to initial details, the MDA emergency dispatch received a call saying there was unconscious child in a parked car at 1 pm.

 

The police have been able to determine that the child was left in the car by a man, who offered his neighbors to pick up their son for his kindergarten.

 

The same man was the one to find the child.

 

The boy was left in the car, in sweltering heat, for about five hours, a police source said.

 

Paramedic Motti Fischer said that his team was scrambled to the scene at noon: "When we got there someone had already taken the child out of the car. He was blue and wasn’t breathing."

 

Yehuda Herzig, a second paramedic, added that the man was distraught: "He couldn’t even speak, he was hysterical and was crying."
