Parents being comforted after baby’s car death

The family of the baby who died after being left unattended in a car for several hours are being comforted by relatives and neighbours as they attempted to come to terms with the tragedy.

The country has reacted with shock and sympathy to the death of Chloe Fogarty who was the only child of Louise and Paul Fogarty from west Tipperary.

A post-mortem is expected to be carried out at University Hospital Limerick today before the body of the seven-month-old can be released to her family.
