LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - A 5-month-old baby has died after being left unattended in a car on Saturday afternoon.
The Fayette County coroner's office said Sunday that the infant died of hyperthermia. WSAZ's sister station WKYT reports that the death is listed as accidental.
Police were called to a home in Lexington on Saturday afternoon after receiving a report that a child was having trouble breathing. Medical crews rushed the infant to the University of Kentucky Hospital while police questioned the child's mother.

How in the world is that considered accidental??? A 5 month old baby being left in a car is no accident. Any child left in a car is no accident for that matter but a 5 month old that has no chance what-so-ever of even trying to get out... This aggravates me to no end. Worthless people that do stupid stuff like that ought to me left in a HOT car for a few hours themselves. GOD bless these poor innocent children.

YFNA- By what standard do you determine right from wrong, in your godless worldview? Who has such an authority as to declare what is ethically right or wrong for the masses to live by?
