A child has died in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland after being left in a car
A 16-month-old child has died after it was forgotten by one of its parents and left in a car for several hours, a Swiss prosecutor has said.
Local authorities claim the child had been left for a "number of hours" in the backseat of a car parked in a company car park in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.
Neuchatel prosecutor Marc Remy said the parent "went to work, forgetting to leave the baby in the usual childcare facility."
He added: "It was not until the end of the working day when they went to pick up their child, that they realised the tragedy had occurred."
A criminal inquiry has been opened, but no further details have been released.
