A fetus was discovered on an MTA Green Route bus in Baltimore, Maryland, on Saturday afternoon, sparking a police investigation.
Police and Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) police responded to the scene at approximately 12:40 p.m. after the bus driver reported finding a fetus on a seat inside the bus. The discovery was made while the bus was traveling southbound between Towson and Downtown Baltimore.
"Even though I wasn't on the bus, just to know something happened like that on the bus, that's what we're going through these days," said resident Jeff McKoy to WBAL, a local news station.
The incident remains under investigation, and no further information has been released at this time.
This discovery comes after several other recent incidents involving babies being found in unusual locations.
In May, a dead baby was found in a dumpster in Florida. The mother of the child, Brusela D'Enstachio-Lugo, 34, admitted to giving birth to the child outside her home and placing the infant's remains in the dumpster. She claimed she was unaware she was pregnant and did not seek medical attention due to her illegal immigration status and lack of funds. D'Enstachio-Lugo was charged with a misdemeanor related to the improper storage of human remains.
In March, police in Leesburg, Virginia, reported the discovery of a "late-term fetus" in a pond. The investigation into that incident is ongoing.
The discovery of a fetus on a public bus in Baltimore has raised concerns and questions about the circumstances surrounding the incident. Police are urging anyone with information to come forward.
