Police in Limpopo are investigating the deaths of three children, aged between two and six, who suffocated to death inside a family car.
The car was parked in the yard at Jamela village in Bolobedu outside Tzaneen.
"According to the information available at this stage, the two children, a three-year-old boy and his six-year-old sister, went to play next door with the two-year-old girl, and while playing, they got inside a parked vehicle with all the windows closed," says police spokesperson Malesela Ledwaba.
The kids were taken to a local clinic after another young relative found them unconscious.
"Upon arrival, they found out that two children aged two and six, both girls, had already been certified dead. The third one, a boy aged three, passed away at Mankweng hospital on Thursday."
