on June 28th 2022 A Virginia father; 37 year old Aaron Beck killed himself after he accidentally left his 18-month-old son in the backseat of a car on a hot Tuesday morning
Temperatures were in the 70s that tuesday, but temperatures can rise rapidly inside a locked car. At 75, car temperatures can reach 90 degrees in about 10 minutes and 109 in 30 minutes.
The father was supposed to drop off the child at daycare but realized at work that he left him in the backseat of his car for three hours
When he found the child, the father drove back to his home in Chester County and took the boy inside the house.
That’s when police received a tip around noon of a man who was suicidal at his home. On the way there, officers received a second tip from one of the father’s family members that there may be a deceased child in the house.
When police arrived at Beck’s home, they found a car in the driveway with the back door still open and the child’s car seat empty.
the toddler was than found to be deseased inside the home. A further investigation led police to a wooded area behind the house, where they found the 37-year-old father dead with a single self-inflicted gunshot wound,
“This is a horrible tragedy on so many levels and our hearts go out to the family and friends that are going to deal with this,” Chesterfield Police Officer Chris Hensley said to reporters at a press conference
