"Authorities say a Miami police officer's wife died after getting trapped in the backseat of his cruiser for hours in the Florida heat.According to the Miami Herald, it happened outside Clara and Asistides Paulino’s Miami Shores home Friday when Clara got in the back seat, looking for something. She then got trapped inside for four hours without any way of contacting anyone.The Miami Herald said a partition between the back seat and the front likely stopped her from being able to honk the horn, and she didn’t have her cell phone with her to call for help.The heat index around that time climbed from 91 degrees at 1 p.m. to 92 degrees at 3 p.m. The temperature held steady through 5 p.m.The Miami Herald said Aristides covers the midnight shift in Wynwood, got home, fell asleep, but may have left his unit unlocked.The type of cruiser she was trapped in is designed to automatically lock once the doors are closed. The Miami-Dade Police Department is investigating the case. "
