The investigation had traffic tied up north of Downtown Miami and was delaying commuter trains.

Miami-Dade County Police said 911 calls were received at about 2 a.m. about the boy and girl, who were in the backseat of a car parked on the Golden Glades Interchange where I-95 meets Florida’s Turnpike. It is one of South Florida’s busiest traffic spots. Passersby were attempting CPR.

No information on a possible cause has been released. The woman was also taken to the hospital, where police said she was in critical condition.
