Mother Winter Parker on Friday evening in desperation called the Ohio police, saying that her child was found frozen on the porch of the house, writes The Daily Mail. The girl died after she was taken to Akron's children's hospital.
It is reported that the mother left the child in the care of his father, to go on urgent business with 4-year-old son. But my father was at home after a night shift and fell asleep.
When the woman called 911 yelling, “She’s frozen!”, The paramedic told her how to perform CPR on the baby. It is known that the baby was without a hat, coat or gloves. On this day, the temperature in a city near the Canadian border was around 20 degrees Fahrenheit (-7 Celsius).
No charges were filed - the investigation is ongoing. The autopsy results of the child are expected soon. So far, medical experts have reported that the girl is believed to have died due to hypothermia, or hypothermia.
On the threshold, where the child is frozen, the inhabitants of the city leave children's toys as a sign of grief.
Akron Children's Hospital warns parents that frostbite can start on exposed areas of the body as soon as 30 minutes outside. Experts remind that hypothermia in children occurs much faster than in adults, and if you are still “normal”, then it is quite possible that the child is already freezing. Doctors advise parents to ensure that their children wear several layers of clothing while walking, as well as to control the time they spend in the cold.
