Twin toddlers aged three are found dead and foaming at the mouth in mom’s abandoned SUV after she tried to kill herself by jumping off road bridge onto railroad tracks in Miami

A Florida father has revealed his anguish after his twin daughters were found dead and foaming at the mouth in an SUV after their mother attempted suicide.

The tragic episode occurred on Friday morning in Miami, when twins Milendhere Gabriel Napoleon Cadet and Milenjhit Gabriella Napoleon Cadet, just three years old, were found shortly before 2 a.m. after their mother, Shirlene Alcime, 42, threw herself over a nearby overpass .

First responders rushed to the scene after bystanders found the girls, who were pronounced dead after being transported to Jackson North Medical Center.

Their devastated father Milson Caldet, who spoke Haitian Creole, wept as he spoke of his children’s sudden death, adding: “I really loved my children.”

The girls’ devastated father Milson Caldet said he was unable to contact his daughters’ mother for days before the tragedy, and cried as he said: ‘I really loved my children’

However, the twins’ official cause of death has not been released Local10 reported that they were foaming at the mouth.

WSVN reported that a 911 dispatcher described them as having cardiac arrest.

It is believed that Alcime attempted suicide by jumping over a bridge onto the train tracks below, leaving her children in her car.

Police have not indicated whether they suspect she deliberately killed her daughters before the suicide attempt.

Despite the considerable distance between the bridge and the train tracks, Alcime survived and was rushed to a nearby hospital.

She is in critical condition and according to local reports she was in a coma.

A friend of the mother said her actions were “nothing like hers at all,” and Caldet said he had no idea what happened after not reaching Alcime for several days.

Through an interpreter, the father said, “I went to the office, I called her, but she didn’t answer… she’s not that kind of person.”

Describing his daughters as fun and excited young children, he said: “Normally when I come in they come and hug me. I really can’t, I can’t talk right now.’

Police rushed to the scene on Interstate 95 in Miami-Dade. The twins were pronounced dead on arrival at hospital and their mother is in a coma

Despite the considerable distance between the bridge and the track, Alcime survived and was rushed to a nearby hospital, where she remains in a coma.

Alcime’s friend, Suzette Walker Morant, said she was stunned to hear of the tragedy, which was unlike the woman she knew to be a loving mother.

“That’s not her, there must be something wrong with her to do something like that,” she said.

‘The person I know would never do something like that. That’s really sad to know that the children died so young, because she’s not that kind of person.

“It’s so mind-boggling right now to find out what really went wrong.”

Police say the investigation is still active.

“At this time, our investigators are working to piece together this tragic incident,” said Detective Andre Martin of the Miami-Dade Police Department.

“There are a lot of questions they have that they are working on to find the answers.”
