MUMBAI: A five-year-old boy, while playing, accidentally entered a car in a garage and died due to suffocation as he got trapped in it, in Mulund East on Tuesday. The deceased was reportedly playing with his father, who runs a paan bidi shop at Mhada Colony in Mulund East.
The Navghar police have registered an offence and are probing it.
According to the police, there is a garage near the shop where the boy used to play in the cars. "Around 3pm, the boy must have entered the Honda car, got trapped inside, and couldn't open the door from within," the police added.
Kanojia told police that the minor asked him if he could use the toilet and went to the garage, and his father fell asleep in the shop. When he woke up, he searched for his son all over and found him lying unconscious in the car. He was rushed to Veer Savarkar Hospital, where he was declared dead.
The boy lived with his parents and older brother in Ramabai Ambedkar Nagar, Navghar. The police are awaiting post-mortem results and have registered an Accidental Death Report (ADR) in the case.
