MIAMI (WTXL) - A one-year-old boy in Southwest Miami-Dade died after being left alone in a hot car for four hours.

Witnesses said the mother parked the vehicle outside of a beauty shop where she works.

At some point she realized the baby was unresponsive and rushed to get help.

The boy was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

It's unclear if the mother will face charges.
