A two-year-old Korean was pronounced dead by his attending physicians at the Commonwealth Health Center, minutes after he was found inside a parked car, while a teen-ager died after he slipped and fell into a rebar.
Hyung Chul Yang was probably too young to listen to the entire Sunday service of the Immanuel Methodist Church in Koblerville and stayed inside the car.
At 2:21 PM, the Department of Public Safety dispatched its medics team to respond to an SOS call after the toddler was found lifeless inside a car parked near the church.
An autopsy is scheduled to determine the cause of his untimely demise, while juvenile investigators are probing into the case and are looking into the possibly of filing criminal charges against Yang’s parents, the report said.
Meanwhile, a rebar went right into the inner thigh and up to the abdomen of 17-year old Adam Santos Masga Friday. He was pronounced dead minutes after he was rushed to CHC.
Following an early pour last Friday, Masga was reportedly walking around the Afetnas in San Antonio when he slipped. Unfortunately, he fell right into a rebar.
The police report did not indicate if a separate investigation will be conducted to determine possible negligence on the part of the establishment owner.
