KOTA SAMARAHAN, Nov 29: A two-year-old baby girl was rescued by the Fire and Rescue Department (Bomba) after being accidentally locked inside a car at Desa Ilmu Bus Station, Jalan Datuk Muhammad Musa here today.
The 27-year-old mother said she and her baby were on their way home after sending their family members to the Kuching International Airport (KIA) around 6.30am.
They then made a stop at the bus stop to buy the famous RM1 nasi lemak.
“Whenever I take my baby out, I usually roll down the car windows fully and make sure to bring the keys with me.
“However, today, I forgot to roll down the windows and accidentally locked my baby inside the car, with both the keys and my mobile phone left inside, as I was rushing to buy nasi lemak.
“After paying the seller and returning to the car, I found my baby locked inside, happily watching YouTube without a care in the world,” she told DayakDaily today.
She then asked the nasi lemak seller to call the fire department for help, and a few minutes later, they arrived.
In a separate report by the Bomba, they said an emergency call regarding the incident was received at 7.31am, before despatching a team from Kota Samarahan Fire Station led by PBK II Yusmandie Barudie to the scene.
Using specialised equipment, the team successfully unlocked the car door, freeing the baby by 7.46am.
The baby was found safe and unharmed. — DayakDaily
