AUSTIN, Texas --

Police said a 10-month-old child was found dead in a car at a Waffle House in southeast Austin.

According to an Austin police spokesperson, officers were dispatched around 2:45 p.m. Thursday to the 7800 block of Ben White Boulevard near the U.S. 183 interchange. They said an employee at the restaurant found the baby boy unconscious and not breathing in the vehicle.

"The car was not on, they didn't have to break a window or anything like that," Cpl. Chad Martinka with the Austin Police Department told ABC affiliate KVUE-TV. "They were able to unlock the door and get the child out."

According to police, the employee called 911 and brought the child inside the Waffle House where he or she tried to do CPR. When medics arrived, they also performed CPR on the child, but were not able to resuscitate him.

Police said they do not know how long the child was in the car, but they were able to find the driver of the car at the scene. They were still trying to establish the relationship between the driver and the child.

"Still trying to figure that out, person was obviously pretty upset so it's hard to get information at this time," said Martinka, adding that no charges have been filed at this point.

The temperature at nearby Austin-Bergstrom International Airport at the time was 98 degrees with a heat index of 106 at the time of the incident.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

I won't be surprised to hear it was a child caught in a custody battle. Probably kidnapped by one of his parents.

Poor baby.

Are we ready for tests before becoming a parent yet?

This pisses me off. I don't believe for one second that someone actually forgets their child is with them.

Possibly due to alcohol

 Agreed. Whenever my kids were in the car I was actually, you know, parenting and talking to them the whole time. See that big truck? Look over there, that's the store where we get your shoes. We have to wait our turn at the light. Are you excited to be going to school today? (We called daycare school) Who will you play with today? Stuff like that. I don't understand people who put their kids in the car and don't talk to them again until they get them out of the car.

My kids were either fighting or if I only had one I would talk to them. Trust me, with three kids they make enough noise that you don't forget them. On the rare occasions I only had one it was for a reason and I would absolutely not forget. Once I had to take my youngest to the cardiologist because they thought he had an enlarged heart. He was an infant and the only one in the car. How do you forget your kids? I don't get it.

I've said that many times, how do you forget?

I was talking to mine too. Singing, talking, pointing out things.

And sometimes, they had cartoons playing.

So unless you're a totally self absorbed douche bag, you don't forget your kids.

 I like this. It should be on billboards across the country.

I'm wondering if the child died elsewhere, and they drove to a public spot to have him "discovered".
