PORIRUA, New Zealand, March 25 (UPI) -- Shoppers at a New Zealand store said they were shocked to see a baby left alone in a car with a note and phone number from the mother.
A man who asked not to be named told The New Zealand Herald he arrived with his family at the Pak'n'Save in Porirua around 9 a.m. Saturday and he spotted a baby alone in a neighboring car.

Umm...yeah we were left inattended in our cribs while we were taking naps, not in a freaking shopping center in a car while mom shopped.
The problem with the car is the risk of temperature extremes. Many babies die each year from this!
