Baby Found in Drain

Newborn baby found down drain in Quakers Hill by passing cyclists

A NEWBORN baby boy found down a drain in Sydney’s north west this morning has sparked an urgent manhunt for the child’s parents.

The newborn was found about 7.30am by cyclists riding along the M7 Motorway cycleway at Quakers Hill.

The cyclists heard a baby’s cry coming from the drain and found the child when they lifted the top of the drain away with the help of passers-by.

Police later removed the newborn from the 2.5m-deep drain.

The baby has no obvious signs of injury, but is being taken to the Children’s Hospital at Westmead for precautionary checks.

Anyone with information about the identity of the child, or how he came to be in the drain, is urged to come forward.

How horrid. I'm so glad that someone found the child before the worst happened!
Who knows how he came to be there? He got have got there anyway.

I'm really hoping they find who is responsible, and can identify the child - most of all, I'm really hoping he finds himself in a stable and loving home.

Welcome to Australia. I know exactly where that happened too.

So sad, the parents should be ashamed if they did this.

That is disgusting, there are too many sick, twisted people in the world.

Do things like this happen often?

Not generally but the M7 is sort of like the interstate. Really busy.

Interesting! I'm actually doing a little bit of browsing on that, and it does look like it's busy! 😛 Thanks for sharing :great:

Road infrastructure. Blech!

Thats horrible. If that baby ever find his/her parents, what would they tell him?

 

[Atrox]

Just saw this, seconds ago, on the news. The mother has been charged with attempted murder. Thank-Goodness.

Well considering there was a massive storm last night and had the baby not have been found would be somewhere out the back of Bondi by now...

Why am I not surprised? With the number of weird news stories that are getting into the regular news stories, I half expected this to be about something else when I first opened it.

Good thing the baby is safe.

Truth be told I'm not surprised at all, too many stupid people in this world. If we would make everyone in the world take tests to see if they are actually stupid enough to do this sort of thing, and if they would be killed, I think the world population would halve.

Oh this is bad, like, really bad. Who in their right mind would do this to someone who can't fight back. D:
