Woman Tries To Steal Newborn From Hospital
A 48 year old woman was arrested yesterday after she was caught by hospital employees trying to smuggle a newborn outside a Southern California hospital in a tote bag. Sensors attached to the baby alerted employees who stopped the woman after an alarm sounded when she crossed an imaginary line. The woman, posing as a nurse told the mother of the baby that she needed to take a shower before the doctor came to examine her. The woman then put the baby in a bag and tried to leave. Back in the day before these sensors, this kind of thing happened frequently. The baby was fine and was returned to her mother.
