As reported by the Greensboro Police Department, 30-year-old Shyeim Deion Moore brought his daughter to the hospital on the evening of September 24, where she was declared dead that same night.

Authorities indicated that specific information regarding the circumstances of the girl’s death cannot be disclosed to the public due to the ongoing investigation.

“What I can state unequivocally is that no child should ever be left alone in a car,” Assistant Chief Ric Alston remarked on Monday. “The temperature that day was in the 80s. The death of this little girl was entirely preventable. … It is truly heartbreaking.”

Officials noted that the girl had just celebrated her 4th birthday earlier this month.

This incident marks the second death of a child in a hot car in North Carolina this year, with the first occurring in Hamlet on June 9.

Data from NoHeatStroke.org indicates that the interior of a vehicle can exceed 130 degrees within an hour when the outside temperature is 90 degrees.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states that a child’s body temperature can rise three to five times faster than that of an adult and can increase rapidly when left in a vehicle.

NHTSA further reports that heatstroke begins when the core body temperature reaches approximately 104 degrees, with death occurring when the core body temperature hits 107 degrees or higher.

Safety Tips for Parents and Caregivers
The Kids and Car Safety nonprofit organization provides suggest creating these simple habits to help keep your child safe:

Make sure your child is never left alone in a car.
Place the child’s diaper bag or item in the front passenger seat as a visual cue that the child is with you.
Make it a habit of opening the back door every time you park to ensure no one is left behind. To enforce this habit, place an item that you can’t start your day without in the back seat (employee badge, laptop, phone, handbag, etc.)
Ask your childcare provider to call you right away if your child hasn’t arrived as scheduled.
Clearly announce and confirm who is getting each child out of the vehicle. Miscommunication can lead to thinking someone else removed the child.
Make sure children cannot get into a parked car:

Keep vehicles locked at all times, especially in the garage or driveway. Ask neighbors and visitors to do the same.
Never leave car keys within reach of children.
Use childproofing knob covers and door alarms to prevent children from exiting your home unnoticed.
Teach children to honk the horn or turn on hazard lights if they become stuck inside a car.
If a child is missing, immediately check the inside, floorboards and trunk of all vehicles in the area carefully, even if they’re locked.
