We have previously written about parents going shopping and leaving their babies in cars during hot days. Doing so is not just irresponsible but dangerous. If left too long, the child could suffer from a heatstroke, faint and possibly even die.

It happens often enough for police officers to be alarmed about the situation and keep a look out for any babies in parking lots during very hot days.

One such police officer is Jason Short from Keene, New Hampshire. He was on duty when he received a call about a baby that was left in a car alone in a Walmart parking lot on a very hot day.

But he never in his mind would have imagined what would happen next.

Jason didn’t hesitate to rush to the scene as soon as he got the call about the infant.
