Man Catches Train, Forgets Baby in Car

By MICHAEL W. KAHN, Associated Press Writer
15 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - Commuters racing to catch the train typically forget things in the car — keys, wallets, briefcases. But a baby daughter?

That's what happened Thursday just north of Washington, police say.

"I don't know exactly when he got the memory flash, but he was in D.C. when it was the horrible defining moment, 'Oh my goodness, I think I've left my child back in my car,'" Baur said.

At that point, she said, Jonathan Sander got off the southbound train and onto a northbound one, returning to the Shady Grove Metrorail station about 12 miles north of Washington.

It ended alright. That dad probably won't live that one down ever.

5. I can't imagine forgetting a kid somewhere, but then I am extremely
paranoid about that sort of thing.
