Rescue of a minor locked in a car in Patronato

A under two years she was locked in a car while her mother got out to shop at Patronage, causing a rescue by Carabineros of the 6th Recoleta Police Station, after being alerted by passers-by who passed by the place and found her crying.

Police personnel arrived at the scene and managed to get the minor to be able to unlock the doors, rescuing her after being locked in the vehicle for about 40 minutes. The girl was with symptoms of dehydration, so they took her to Roberto del Rio Hospital.

Despite these symptoms, the captain Angelica Igor, from the Recoleta Su Sub-police Station, assured that “fortunately he did not present injuries“, according to Teletrece.

About an hour later the mother appeared, who indicated as an excuse that the child was sleeping and that she thought she would take less time shopping, so she did not get her out of the car.

Carabineros reported the situation to the North Central Prosecutor’s Office, who made the complaint to 4th Family Court.
