It's March 6th. Here's your Adelaide News in two minutes. A nine-month-old baby boy named Cohen died after being left in a family car in Elizabeth Downs on Wednesday night. His father discovered him unresponsive and ran down the street screaming for help with CPR. A neighbor rushed out and performed chest compressions, but the infant could not be saved. The father had gone to kiss Cohen good night and realized he was missing from bed. That's when he checked the car and found the tragedy unfolding. He was hurt as desperate cries echoing through the quiet suburb. Ebony Baxter, the quick-thinking neighbor with infant CPR training, felt a faint pulse during her efforts. She later shared how the ordeal has stayed with her, replaying the heartbreaking scene in her mind, others nearby which they could have done more to help. Police arrested the baby's 31-year-old mother, Crystal Manakin, charging her with criminal neglect. It's still unclear how long Cohen was in the vehicle on that hot evening. The integrator seized the family van to piece together the timeline.
The community remains shaken by the loss and the frantic attempts to save the little boy. This episode is brought to you by our sponsor, CD Episode Description.
