Three-year-old fraternal twins died in the pre-dawn hours of Friday morning after they were found unresponsive in a car on the I-95 northbound ramp to Florida’s Turnpike in the Golden Glades interchange, Miami-Dade police said.
Around 2 a.m., police received a 911 call from a passerby about an unresponsive child, followed by another call about a second unconscious child, police said.
“One person is performing CPR on one child,” a dispatcher told Miami-Dade Fire Rescue paramedics.
When officers arrived, the woman who had been driving the vehicle was out of the car and then she “went over the railing of the on-ramp,” landing on the railroad tracks, which run under the Golden Glades interchange, Det. Andre Martin, a police spokesman, told reporters near the scene.
“The mom jumped off the highway; she is on the train tracks,” a first responder told the dispatcher. “The woman who jumped is still alive,” another said moments later.
"That adult female went over the railing to the on-ramp onto the railroad tracks, which is a considerable distance," Martin said. "The adult female that was located, the action of her going over to the railing, that happened almost as soon as our officers arrived."
"Not just as a police officer, but as a father, any case, any incidents such as this one that results in the death of a child is very, very difficult. My prayers are with the family of these children. My prayers are with our investigators and officers having to deal with this in our community at large of Miami-Dade County," Martin said. "There should be no incident that results in the loss of a child, especially the ages of three and four years old. And we just really hope we can figure out exactly what happened here. And why something tragic, so tragic as this would happen."
