4-month-old baby saved after being trapped in a locked car during a heatwave in Alba Iulia

A four-month-old baby was rescued by intervention teams after being accidentally locked inside a parked car, in conditions of temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius.

The situation was noticed by a gendarme on his day off, who acted quickly, considering the risks associated with extreme heat and the lack of air conditioning. With the owner's consent, he broke a window of the car and managed to safely extract the baby.

The Gendarmerie issued recommendations to prevent such situations, emphasizing the importance of never leaving children or pets alone in vehicles and always checking for keys before closing the doors. Additionally, in case of emergency, it is essential to call the number 112.
