The grandfather went to his apartment in the town of La Palme near Narbonne, where the girl’s mother and two other children were staying. When he later went to check on her, he found that the girl was no longer breathing. The man, who had worked as a volunteer firefighter for 40 years, tried to resuscitate the child until the rescue team arrived. However, doctors who were flown in by helicopter could only confirm that the girl was dead.
Autopsy ordered
An autopsy will now determine the cause of death. The grandfather and mother were questioned by the police. Investigations were launched against the grandfather for negligent homicide and he was taken into police custody. Temperatures in the region reached 29 degrees on Sunday afternoon.
