A Massachusetts baby is dead after his mother forgot to drop him off at a daycare and left him in a roasting hot car for the entire day.
The 1-year-old boy was found unresponsive when his mother showed up to retrieve him from the Sol-Solecito daycare in Lexington Tuesday evening.
Staff sent the boy’s mother a text alerting her that he was not there at around 9 a.m. but the woman did not read the message.

She reportedly became agitated when she realized that he had been in her car all day.
“It’s just so sad. It’s just one of these awful things you hear about, it gives me a pit in my stomach just thinking about it,” another parent commented.
An investigation into the hot car death is ongoing; no charges have been filed.
