BACOLOD CITY – A one-week-old baby girl wrapped in a towel was found by a minor in Sitio Panunquibon, Barangay Nasig-id, Zamboanguita, Negros Oriental last Thursday.
A report from the Negros Oriental Police Provincial Office said a Grade 12 student was searching for a phone signal beside a cliff around 11:56 a.m. when she heard a baby crying.
The baby’s body was covered with soil. She was abandoned by an unidentified individual in the area.
The girl went back to their house and told her 26-year-old brother about the baby. Her brother reported the discovery to the authorities and brought the baby to the Rural Health Unit in the town. (Glazyl Masculino)
