POLICIA LOCAL of Aljaraque (Huelva) have been forced to smash a car window in order to save the life of a young toddler.

The incident took place on Saturday night, August 6, at 10:05pm when the emergency telephone number, 112, received a distressed call alerting that a two-year-old boy had become trapped inside a car after the central locking system had failed.

The policia local rapidly arrived at the scene of the incident where they found the child’s highly agitated parents next to a car, with the young boy trapped inside alone.
