Newborn baby girl pulled from public toilet

A Beijing policeman rescued a newborn baby that was stuck facedown in a public toilet, reaching his arm down into the pipe to gently pull the infant out, the police reported on Tuesday.

The baby girl was in stable condition at a hospital, and authorities were trying to identify her parents and find out how she ended up in the toilet.

Beijing Television aired a video taken by police of the rescue on Sunday by Officer Qian Feng, following reports of cries in a public restroom in an alley.
