LAKEWOOD, Wash. (AP) — Police in Washington state are asking for help to identify a 3-month old baby found abandoned in a grassy area.
Lakewood Police Lt. Chris Lawler says a woman walking home in a residential neighborhood early Monday stopped when she thought she heard a distressed animal. Instead, she found a baby boy in the grass.
Lawler says the boy was cold but otherwise uninjured. The baby was taken to a local hospital and placed in protective state custody.
Officers were unable to find a parent while searching the neighborhood.WHAT OTHERS ARE CLICKING ON-
