Boy locked
in hot car airlifted to hospital
2005-06-21 When deputies and emergency workers
arrived, the man had placed his son in a bathtub to bring the boy's body
temperature down. Urquhart said the boy's condition possibly was life
threatening, but no further information was available from the hospital. The man told deputies he believed his son
had been in the car for about an hour. The air temperature was about 78
degrees in It was unclear Monday how the boy ended up
in the car or if the father knew his son was in the car before he found him
there, Urquhart said. Deputies are investigating. Noel Brady can be reached at
