A man with Down syndrome who police say was nonverbal and had the cognitive ability of a 1-year-old died in a hot van while his caregiver slept in the driver's seat after taking drugs, authorities say.

A man with Down syndrome who police said was nonverbal and had the cognitive ability of a 1-year-old died in a hot van while his caregiver slept in the driver's seat after taking drugs, authorities in Florida said.

LaPointe, a resident of Crossroads of Pinellas group home, was found in the backseat of a van on May 9 after he was left in the vehicle without air conditioning for several hours as Russell napped in the front.
