2 facing charges after baby found inside hot car in Lauderdale Lakes

MIAMI - A three-month-old baby is expected to be OK after being found inside a hot car in Lauderdale Lakes, but her dad and aunt are now facing neglect charges. 

John Polidor, 43, and Rose Belony, 40, were arrested Monday and both face one count of child neglect without great harm.

Employees at the Enterprise Rent-a-Car, located at 2200 N. State Road 7, called 911 after noticing the baby inside a vehicle at around 11 a.m. 

The heat index was 109 degrees with temperatures even hotter inside the vehicle. Witnesses told police the infant looked lethargic.

The baby was taken to Broward Health Medical Center where she was treated. 

Both the father and the aunt bonded out of court and will be facing a judge in about three weeks.
