Buenos Aires : A seven-month-old baby in Argentina has survived alone for three days with a bullet wound in the chest, next to the bodies of its parents who allegedly committed suicide over fears of global warming, a media report said.
The incident took place in Goya city in northeastern Corrientes province, where Francisco Lotero, 56, and Miriam Coletti, 22, lived with their two small children, Clarin daily reported Saturday.
According to sources, cited by the newspaper, the couple’s neighbours smelled a strong odour coming from Lotero’s house. Police entered the house and found the bodies of the couple, each shot in the chest, and their two-year-old son, who had been shot in the back.
In another room, police found a seven-month-old baby alive but covered in blood from a bullet wound in the chest. The baby was rushed to a hospital where its condition is currently stable.
Police found a letter on the table alluding to the couple’s worry about global warming and their anger at the government’s lack of interest in the matter.
