SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — Authorities say a 2-year-old Nebraska girl has survived nine cold hours alone in a car parked outside her mother's workplace in Dakota Dunes, S.D.

The girl was treated and released on Tuesday from a Sioux City hospital.

Authorities in Union County, S.D., say the mother told deputies she didn't realize the girl was in the car until the girl's father called after 5 p.m. Tuesday to say the girl wasn't at her day care.
