@QueensNewsNow Since many don’t seem to be familiar, hopefully this comment can help. Heatstroke can manifest quickly even after only being outside for a few minutes in extreme heat. Even if you’re drinking water, your body may still be losing more water in sweat than it’s regaining through drinking. If you don’t want to end up in a hospital or worse due to the heat, seek air conditioning or shelter as soon as you start to feel off in any way while outside. Especially if you’re someone who has medical conditions or is taking prescription meds

Why is everyone saying heat related? Clearly they said they responded to the lady in red car who was in distress because her loved one is deceased in white car. Could’ve been a simple heart attack, stroke, suicide, drugs, anything. Let’s wait to see what really happened without all these insane assumptions.

The woman in the red car is the family member having a mental breakdown, not a heat stroke or heat related illness
