An incident occurred on the street of a residential area in port Harcourt. An abandoned taxi parked on the street and was not locked. Three children went into the vehicle to play and accidentally locked themselves inside the vehicle. The car became stuffy and three kids were gasping for air. A passerby saw the minors and quickly opened the front door to rescue all three children. Further health checks confirmed all three kids were confirmed OK
Why it happened
• All three kids did not see any danger going into an abandoned vehicle
• Parked vehicle was not locked
• Residents ignored the potential threat the abandoned vehicle posed
 
Mitigation
• We should always check the status of abandoned vehicles around our homes
• Educate children against going into parked vehicles
