It happened around 5:30 p.m. Thursday in the 10,000 block of James Street. The location is north of the Indiana border.
State Police say a two-year-old boy was in distress being accidentally locked inside the vehicle in temperatures around 90 degrees.
“Trooper Erik Gantert arrived on scene shortly after the initial call…(he) quickly broke the driver’s side window. Trooper Gantert then unlocked the vehicle, so the mother could retrieve the child.”
