Baby dies in steamy bathroom 

A baby died in the United States after his father left him in a steamy bathroom, in an attempt to ease his cough.
The one-year-old, named Mordechai Halpern, woke up coughing, police told the New York Daily News.
The boy’s father told police he gave him a bottle with water and lemon juice.

The remedy didn’t work, so he placed the boy in his stroller, covered him with a blanket and turned on the hot water.
When she woke up 90 minutes, later the boy’s mother found the baby unconscious.
Halpern was rushed to a New York hospital, where he was pronounced dead in minutes.
His body temperature when he died was 108F degrees (42C), sources told the New York Daily News.
Police did not think the father meant to harm his son, sources said.
An autopsy will be held to determine the baby’s cause of death.
