Newborn baby rescued alive from sewage pipe in China
Residents of an apartment building in the city of Jinhua heard the sound of an infant crying and after rescuers cut open the drain the child was rushed to hospital.
Chinese state media say firefighters and medics have rescued a newborn boy from a sewer pipe below a lavatory.
The state-run news site Zhejiang News says a tenant heard the baby's cries in the lavatory of a residential building in Jinhua City in eastern China's Puijian county on Saturday and notified authorities.
Firefighters removed an L-shaped section of the pipe - about 10 centimetres (3 inches) in diameter - and rushed it to a hospital where it was dismantled and the baby was treated.
Zhejiang News says the child, named Baby No. 59 from the number of his incubator, is safe.
Police are treating the case as an attempted homicide, and are looking for the mother and anyone else involved. View Picture
