SAN FRANCISCO -- A 4-month-old boy left inside his father's car at the El Cerrito Plaza Bay Area Rapid Transit station has died.

Johnson said the baby's distraught mother called police around 5:30 p.m. after discovering her son, who was unresponsive, in the car.

But he brought the boy to the station Monday.
Johnson said he did not know how long the boy was in the car.
He said the parents are being questioned by BART police.
Authorities are also not releasing the parents' names.
