Father Who Forgot Baby In Car Will Not Be Charged In Death: Crown

The Canadian Press, 09 Aug, 2018 12:52 PM
    MONTREAL — Crown officials will not be laying charges against a man whose baby died after he forgot the six-month-old boy in his car last June.
     
     
    Crown spokesman Jean Pascal Boucher said Wednesday no criminal act occurred.
     
     
    Police said last June the father showed up at his baby's daycare to bring the infant home but was told by workers they hadn't seen the child all day.
     
     
    Officers said it was only then the father realized he had left the boy in the car that morning.
     
     
    First responders tried to resuscitate the baby, but he was declared dead at the scene.
     
     
    Crown officials say they have notified the boy's father of their decision.
