This is so incredibly sad.
According to police, on June 6, Scott Allen Gardner of Volusia County, Florida, allegedly left his 18-month-old son, Sebastian, in a hot car for three hours while he got a haircut and then drank at a bar, leading to the child's death.
It was 96 degrees outside, and when law enforcement arrived to try to save the kid's life, they were unsuccessful. The child's body temperature reportedly reached 111 degrees.
What's more, according to police, Gardner gave them several false accounts of the events leading to his son's death. He was arrested on Thursday.
The same officer who tried to revive Sebastian at the scene is the one who handcuffed Gardner in the above video.
Gardner is charged with aggravated manslaughter of a child and child neglect causing great bodily harm.
His bond is set at $100,000.
