A Fort Worth father has been arrested for allegedly leaving his five children in a parked car with the engine running, but without air conditioning on Sunday, CBS Dallas reports. 

Officers said they found Jose Leal, 29, at 8 p.m. in the yard of a home and the five children, ages 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6, in the car nearby. 

Several were either sleeping or passed out when officers pulled them from the car. They immediately placed them inside air conditioned squad cars.
