Police are appealing for help after a newborn baby was found dead in pub toilets. The tragic body of the baby girl was found at the Three Horsehoes pub in Leeds Road, Oulton, near Leeds, West Yorkshire, at around 4.45pm on Sunday afternoon.
LeedsLive reports that West Yorkshire Police are now trying to track down the mother. A full investigation is underway. DCI James Entwistle said: “This is a tragic incident and we are urgently appealing for the mother of the baby girl to contact us or seek medical help as she has been through an extremely traumatic ordeal and could well need treatment herself. “If the mother is comfortable speaking to the police then she can do so by calling 101 or she can use LiveChat online to talk to us remotely at www.westyorkshire.police.uk/livechat. “If she doesn’t want to speak to the police, she can contact the Leeds Maternity Assessment Unit on 0113 3926731.
Our enquiries into the incident remain ongoing today with NHS partners but our main priority remains the mother’s welfare and safety.”
