Area shoppers at a Katy, Texas strip mall busted the window of a hot car to save two small children who were locked inside.
On Monday, July 13, a little boy and girl was screaming crying when a mob of shoppers heard the screams from inside a black Jeep. Meteorologists reported the temperature reached up to 98 degrees in the Houston suburb. The children’s mother locked the kids in the car while she visited a salon to get her hair cut. Child safety locks prevented the children from escaping.
A Good Samartian used a hammer to bust out the back window to rescue the kids. A woman climbed into the car, grabbing the children.
The mother rushed from inside the salon, apologizing for her admitted “terrible mistake.” She said she only left the kids in the car temporarily.
Police were not called to the scene after the woman pleaded with the rescuers.
