In a dramatic incident in Kharar marketplace, Mohali, India, an 18-month-old boy was rescued after being trapped inside a locked car for half an hour. The family had briefly left the child in the vehicle while shopping for groceries. During their absence, the toddler accidentally engaged the car's central locking system by pressing a button on the console, locking himself inside. When the family returned, they found themselves unable to open the doors or lower the windows, prompting a crowd to gather as panic ensued. After 30 minutes of unsuccessful attempts to unlock the vehicle, bystanders decided to break a window to free the child, who was unharmed. A video of the rescue circulated widely on social media, with a bystander cautioning parents about the dangers of leaving young children unattended in cars. Local police confirmed that there were no reported injuries or formal complaints related to the incident, but the event serves as a stark reminder of the potential hazards posed by modern vehicle locking systems.
