Baby found dead in car @ Wickham’s Cay II
Confusion surrounds the circumstances in which a baby was allegedly left in a car and is now reported dead.
The deceased baby has been identified as Zaria C. Farhon, 11 months, of Pockwood Pond, Tortola.
Our newsroom is working on the full details and police are currently investigating; however, initial information reaching our newsroom is that the father of the child who works in financial services was scheduled to drop the child off to a daycare in Road Town but apparently never did.
Police have been tight-lipped about the matter that happened this evening Monday, April 30, 2018, in a parking lot close to a building on Wickham's Cay II.
There was loud wailing from the parents of the child when this news reporter arrived on the scene and a large crowd had also gathered.
Our newsroom is also investigating the matter.

The family are in my prayers. I know its hard to understand and process but God.
In the name of Jesus, we bind up the strongman of death and cast out the spirit of absentmindedness and confusion, we blow them out of the territory of the Virgin Islands with the mighty wind of God into the pit of hell from whence they came. We pray that the family will lean not to their own understanding and will rest in the arms of God our deliverer and healer. We pray especially for the father who may be overcome by pain, guilt and shame, and for the mother who maybe consumed by loss, pain, anger and hatred. May GOD do only what HE can do in this situation, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and King we pray these things today. AMEN!
BVI people not correct, like a statement where someosomeone stays it could of happen to them.
Do not leave your child in a vehicle unattended period;
People's habit memory system is more dominant than their perspective memory system. So a repetitive actions that is performed automatically, as in routinely driving from home to work, often prevails. Taking his daughter to day care is not his routine task, so chances are, he will forget.
Regardless of the circumstances, exercise some compassion, which one day you too will be in need of.

Someone said maybe its the mom who normally do the daycare drop off and allow the dad to do it and maybe he forgot. I think it could have happened that way.
I do hope they can find comfort in all your prayers and encouragement.
Please mothers or even dads a phone to each other a day can make a huge difference. Maybe if she called him or he call her during the course of the day a child would not have died. Or parents it does not hurt to contact ur child's school or daycare after dropping off. U never know whose life u can safe .
Let's not forget that there are innocent adults and children suffering in many other different ways ...
Think about how others were dealt by other peoples' very own (deliberate) actions ...
I will keep you in my prayers because no one deserves this. I’m so sorry for your pain and loss. I pray you guys are able to comfort each other through this difficult time.
My condolences to the family. Everybody is a target. Even in the womb you not safe. If I had the choice to go back there I wouldn't do that at all.
