A yellow daffodil with a prayer pinned to a pink and blue ribbon, lies next to a fire hydrant where a newborn baby boy was found dead this afternoon.
"We know that this child is a newborn. It's a male. And we're not quite sure of the race. But we know that according to the ME's office that it has been dead for about ten hours. And so at some point we think during the night, somebody came through and dropped that bag on the side of the road."
Sandy Springs police say at about 4:30 today, a boy walking to a friend's house in the Dunwoody townhome complex, saw a blue gym bag lying on the ground. Out of curiosity 1, he opened the bag, and found a dead baby boy inside. The boy brought the bag to his parents who then called 911.
What we are trying to do is we are trying to find out through canvassing 3 we've been through the apartments and the townhomes here. And with canvass 2 and distributed flyers, we need to find out who the mother of this child is.
