A toddler suffered severe burns after being sprayed with a garden hose that had been left lying in the sun.
As Scotland bakes in record-breaking temperatures, people are being warned of dangers brought on by the heatwave that we haven't had to face in previous summers. A picture from the US shows the horror result of a garden hose being left out in direct sunlight after it was used to spray down a child.
Taken in Las Vegas, where temperatures can often reach over 40C, the image shows the tot covered in burns after they were showered with a hose that had been left outside in the heat. The picture was posted to Twitter by the Las Vegas fire department to prevent others making the same mistake while out in the sun, Wales Online reports.
