A distressed 5-month-old baby was left screaming inside a sun-drenched ute in Tauranga yesterday while the mother went to an internet cafe.
A member of the public took the baby to a nearby CYF office. CYF communications adviser Tracy Buckland said two children, one aged 2 years and the other 5 months were in the car. She said the mother was spoken to by social workers.
