A Garda investigation is underway after reports that a baby was left alone in a hot car in Cork on Tuesday.
There's a video being shared online showing the infant strapped into a car seat in the car park of the Market Green Shopping Centre in Midleton.
The Irish Examiner reports that two windows were left open a few inches, while temperatures at the time were hitting 20 degrees.
Footage of the incident was recorded by a member of the public who posted it on social media.
Gardaí are liasing with the child and family agency Tusla.
