A 2-month-old baby who was found unresponsive in a hot car in Santee last week was identified Monday by sheriff’s investigators.
Diana Sofia Aleman Roman was found by a family member around 12:20 a.m. June 13 after she had apparently been left inside a parked car, Lt. Lon Nguyen said in a news release Monday. The girl’s family told investigators that they had arrived home, on Settle Road near Dalehurst Road, about 3 p.m. June 12, and the child was found about nine hours later, Nguyen said.
The family member called 911. Paramedics arrived and took the baby to a hospital, where she died.
