Dead Baby Boy Found in Plastic Bag

an Inquirer report from 2008


...the body of a baby boy was discovered at a tricycle terminal on H. Francisco Street corner Morato Road, Barangay Damayan.


Driver Hermilando Balalad Jr. said he found a plastic bag inside a tricycle as he was parking his vehicle at the terminal.


Curious about its contents, he said he opened the bag and was shocked to see the dead baby estimated to be about seven months old.


Balalad said the baby had a long open wound on his chest.


“It was likely that the baby boy’s chest was cut open. But we’re not sure if his internal organs were gone,” said village chairman Gualberto Casaje.
