Father left baby in hot car while he was at bar, police say

A Northern California man was arrested after allegedly leaving his 1-year-old son in a hot car while the father was at a bar.

Sergei Andrey Tchelakov, 47, of Woodacre was arrested Monday on suspicion of child cruelty after witnesses reported seeing the child in his car seat near the Iron Springs Pub and Brewery in Fairfax, the Marin Independent Journal reported.

Authorities said the baby was in direct sunlight with the windows up and was "extremely warm to the touch," according to the newspaper.

After being confronted by the witnesses about the child, the baby's father reportedly rolled down the car windows, and went back inside. The witnesses then notified police.
