A newborn baby’s life was saved by a woman in North Carolina who heard cries coming from a trash bin in her neighborhood. She found the baby, covered in blood, in a garbage bag with his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck.
It was unclear exactly how long the newborn had endured the outdoor heat on July 16. The baby boy survived, however. “I know God put me at that place at that time,” said Cynthia Burton, who was walking her dog Flounder at the time.
