SALT LAKE CITY, April 30 (UPI) -- An 18-month-old baby died in Utah after his mother accidentally left him in a hot car while she became distracted putting away groceries, officials said.

Jana Gailey, a 33-year-old mother of four, said she was distracted upon returning from the store to her Kearns Township home before realizing her baby had been in the car for three hours unattended, the Salt Lake Tribune reported Wednesday.

Gaily reportedly hurried outside to find her son Myles passed out inside the vehicle, which warmed as outdoor temperatures reached nearly 80 degrees.

Paramedics Monday pronounced the baby dead upon their arrival at the home, the report said. Officials said Tuesday Myles' death was "heat-related," said Lt. Paul Jaroscak of the Salt Lake County Sheriff's Office.

"This could happen to anyone, anytime," said Janette Fennell, president of the Kansas-based Kids and Cars.

This happens in Australia every bloody summer.. they leave the child in the car and there was even a discussion about it on TV educating parents how hot it gets in the car even for 10 minutes. It is heart breaking when a little one dies like that. :cry:
