Unhappy Man and his dog perish in corvette.

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/tex...sNYDailyNews11

"A 72-year-old man from Port Arthur, Texas, died inside his dream car when the lock system malfunctioned and he was trapped inside his 2007 Corvette with his dog, Leia.
James Rogers and his pet both died of heat exhaustion earlier this week, police said.
The accident is not uncommon for some Corvette models, owners say. A low battery or a low key fob battery can cause the locks to lock up. But there is a manual release on the driver's side that allows occupants to bypass the battery, according to owners' manuals."



Very sad news, prayers to his family.
