Panicked relatives learned not to leave 2-year-olds
alone in a car after their toddler locked the doors, stranding her for
an hour.
Sawang Boriboon Foundation rescuers were called to
South Pattaya’s Tesco-Lotus shopping center Feb. 4 to free the 29-month
girl from her aunt’s Honda. The child was rescued unhurt.
Nasha Dernae, 44, said she and family members had
been shopping and that little “Nong Roger” had been with her brother.
When she and other female relatives were delayed, the impatient brother
left the toddler in the car to go look for them. When they returned, the
crafty little girl had locked the doors.
The family tried to coax the kid to open the door,
but after a half-hour of trying they gave up and called authorities.
