BOSTON — A woman and two young children have died after being found unconscious on a sidewalk near a Boston parking garage on Christmas Day.
“Today is a tragedy,” said Boston Police Commissioner William Gross, during an afternoon news conference.
The identities of the victims, as well as the woman’s relationship to the children, who Gross said appeared to be under age 5, has not yet been determined. News video showed police looking at an SUV, with several doors wide open, parked on the top level of the parking garage, which is adjacent to the Ruggles MBTA rail station.
Gross said there were two child car seats in the vehicle.
“At this point, this is a death investigation,” he said, without speculating on what happened. Gross asked anyone with information about the incident to contact police.
