Toddler found unconscious in Hadera car last week dies in hospital

A two-year-old girl who was found unconscious in a car in Hadera last week and had remained in critical condition since has died.

The toddler was being treated at Rambam Medical Center in Haifa, where she was later pronounced dead.

Toddlers dying after being forgotten in vehicles is a repeated occurrence in Israel, where temperatures in locked cars can soar to 70°C (160°F) — a level that can prove dangerous to children even over brief periods.
