Two-year-old dies, left in car during Spain's heat
A young child in Spain's north-west died from heatstroke, having been left in a vehicle during unseasonably high May temperatures. She suffered cardiac arrest on Wednesday, after hours inside the vehicle, because her father didn't remember her nursery drop-off. The council in Brión has announced two days of remembrance for the two-year-old.
