Authorities are looking for a young father who was caught on video dumping his newborn baby on the street wrapped in a plastic bag
Surveillance footage showed the unidentified man reaching into a backpack to remove plastic bag with the baby boy inside.
He is then seen surveying the area before placing the bag on the ground near a parked car.
The horrifying incident occurred the Mexican city of Tultitlán on Tuesday.
A video obtained by Mexican news network Tele Diario showed paramedics treating the baby as he was being rushed to the hospital.
The baby is recovering and is under the custody of Mexico’s National System for Integral Family Development.
The baby’s mother, whose name has been withheld, told Mexican television news network Telediario that she was five months pregnant and went into labor at her job.
She said that she initially felt a sharp spasm near her abdomen and went to the bathroom, where she noticed she was bleeding.
‘After the bleeding, the baby came out… That’s when I panicked and didn’t know what to do,’ the young mother said.
She recalled that her ‘ears were ringing’ and that ‘everything was blurry’ as she began to weaken.
‘I gave him to his father so he could help me see what we could do with him and he told me he was going to take him,’ she said.
She said she initially thought her boyfriend was going to take him to the hospital, only to discover on social media that he had dumped him on the street.
The woman told the outlet that she is not under criminal investigation, but has not been told if and when she will be awarded custody of her son.
The State of Mexico Attorney General’s Office is leading the investigation.
She expressed concern for the safety of her family and herself after social media users began to post photos of her and her boyfriend, whom she has not seen or heard from since Tuesday.
‘All that the [social media] networks generate is pure misinformation,’ she said. ‘There have really been many threats to me, to my family. That is what I do not want. I do not want my family to be held in a bad opinion.’
