In the early hours of Sunday, March 24, residents of an apartment building in Saint-Étienne, France, were awoken by the faint sound of a baby crying. The noise seemed to come from the building’s trash room, and as neighbors emerged from their apartments to investigate, they were met with a gruesome sight: bloodstains leading from the trash room to the basement.
The discovery sparked a frantic response, with neighbors quickly calling emergency services. The cries and blood suggested that the baby had just been born, and medical help was urgently needed. Emergency personnel rushed to the scene, and a team from the Loire Samu was dispatched to provide critical care.
One of the physicians on the scene sprang into action, providing prompt medical attention to the newborn. The baby was hypothermic and still had the umbilical cord attached, but thankfully, their life was not in danger. The infant was rushed to the CHU of Saint-Étienne for further care and treatment.
As news of the miraculous discovery spread, an investigation was launched to determine the circumstances surrounding the baby’s abandonment. The incident serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of seeking help and support during difficult times. Thankfully, the baby’s story has a happy ending, and they are receiving the care and love they deserve.
