Boy, 3, dies after being left in hot car by child services — just after supervised visit with dad

A 3-year-old boy died in Alabama after he was left alone in a scorching car by a child protective services worker — immediately after leaving a supervised visit with his dad.

Ke’Torrius Starks Jr., who had been living in temporary foster care, was left in the Department of Human Resources worker’s car in Birmingham for five hours Tuesday as temperatures soared to 108 degrees, AL.com reported.

“This is a parent’s worst nightmare,” the child’s parents said in a statement. “Our baby should be alive.”
