SINGAPORE – A baby was found alive in a bin at the bottom of a rubbish chute at Block 534 Bedok North Street 3 on Tuesday (Jan 7) morning.

It was wrapped in a plastic bag and discovered among other bags of rubbish and food packaging when cleaners tried to clear the bin between 8am and 9am.

The baby appeared to be a newborn. Photographs taken showed there were blood stains on the bag.

A passer-by, Mr Lim Yok Liang, 72, who was heading to a nearby coffee shop for breakfast at 9.20am, told The Straits Times: “I saw an ambulance at the open-air carpark under the block. There was a policeman carrying a baby, wrapped in a cloth.

“The baby was not crying. It looked like it was still breathing.”

The infant was later taken away by the ambulance.
