A NEWBORN baby girl has tragically been found dead in a rubbish pile at an industrial estate.
The baby was found in a warehouse at midday yesterday.
Cops believe she was “unknowingly transported” by bin men to the site in Rowley Regis, .
They are urgently trying to track down the mother out of concern for her welfare.
The force is trying to identify the baby and figure out how she died, urging anyone with information to come forward.
West Midlands said in a statement: “The baby was found within a waste pile which had been transported by a private waste operator to an industrial site in Station Road, Rowley Regis, at just before midday.
“At this stage we believe the baby was unknowingly transported on Wednesday.
“We understand the operator works across the West Midlands, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and West Mercia areas. We’re not connecting the business to the sad death.”
Detective Chief Inspector Kylie Westlake added: “While we don’t yet know what has happened, what we do know is that there must be a mother out there who is in real need of help − and she is our absolute priority at the moment.
“We have been checking CCTV and speaking to hospitals, but it may be that the mother or someone who knows who she is sees this appeal.
“I really want to speak to her to make sure she’s OK, and to ensure that she can get the help that she urgently needs.”
“We’ll treat information we receive sensitively, and we’d ask for anyone who can help us identify who baby and mother was to come forward.
“It may be you live near a baby, and their mother, who have unexpectedly not been seen for a number of days.”
