A COUPLE who left their three young children in a locked car in the heat in order to go to the beach have been arrested in Benalmádena (Málaga).
The father, 48, and mother, 39 had left them with no ventilation or water at the hottest part of the day.
A member of the public saw the children shut in the car in a car park near the beach and unable to escape, sweating profusely and feeling dizzy, all of which put them at serious risk of heat-stroke.
This was at around 14.45hrs on Wednesday last week, but the news has only just been released.
Firefighters were called out and cut the children free from the vehicle, then traced the parents who were arrested.
