A 2-year-old Arizona girl died after her father left her asleep in a car during a heat wave on Tuesday, police said. An initial investigation indicates the toddler’s father arrived home while she was asleep in the car, and he left her there with the vehicle running and the air conditioner on while he went inside his home, according to police in Marana, located just outside Tucson. Her mother eventually arrived home, and shortly afterward the child was discovered unresponsive inside the car, which was no longer running and had the air conditioning off, police said. Someone called 911, and firefighters and Marana police arrived shortly after 4 p.m., police said. The girl was left in the car for about 30 minutes to an hour before she was found, police told CNN affiliate KNXV. Resuscitation efforts were done on the child and she was transported to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead, according to police. Marana police detectives were granted a search warrant Tuesday night and an investigation into the death is ongoing, police said.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth risked compromising sensitive military information that could have endangered US troops through his use of Signal to discuss attack plans, a Pentagon watchdog said in an unclassified report released Thursday. It also details how Hegseth declined to cooperate with the probe.
