Ghaziabad, Jun 17 : Adnan, a 5 year old child sleeping inside a locked Honda City car for nearly an hour died of asphyxiation on Thursday night at Loni near Ghaziabad.
The incident occurred when Adnan and his parents were going to some party. On their way to the party Adnan fell asleep on the back seat of the car. As the parents reached the party, they locked the car believing that Adnan will have a sound sleep inside the locked car.
After an hour or so, Adnan's parents returend to the car only to find their son lying unconscious inside.
Adnan was rushed to Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital in Shahdara where doctors declared him dead.
This incident should act as an eye-opener to people who leave their children locked inside cars. While locking them in, they should ensure that the windowpanes are slightly kept open, so that children can get air.
