Tragic Discovery in Linares: Three-Year-Old Found Deceased in Car

Foster father arrested on charges of involuntary homicide as investigations continue
Authorities in Linares, Jaén, have confirmed the recovery of a deceased three-year-old boy found inside a parked vehicle on Pintor El Greco Street.

The boy's foster father, approximately 70 years old, has been detained under suspicions of involuntary homicide.

Emergency services were alerted to the scene at 2:55 PM by a concerned individual.

Following the alert, a mobile emergency unit and a team of paramedics were dispatched to the location.

Upon arrival, medical personnel attempted to revive the child; however, their efforts were unsuccessful, and the death was officially pronounced shortly thereafter.

Local police and National Police officers also arrived to manage the situation.

Reportedly, the foster father had been responsible for taking the child to daycare daily, maintaining communication with the daycare staff via WhatsApp.

On Tuesday, despite having dropped the boy off at the daycare, he failed to notify the caregivers that he would be taking the child with him afterward.

The child's foster mother, upon arriving at the daycare to pick up the boy, realized that he was not there.

This prompted her to contact emergency services, leading to the tragic discovery in the car.

A judicial protocol has been activated in response to the incident.

The body of the child is set to be transported to the Institute of Legal Medicine for an autopsy to determine the exact circumstances surrounding his death.
