A baby girl sadly passed away after being discovered abandoned on a busy road near the Galveston Seawall in Texas.
The infant was found alive at approximately 9:45 a.m. on 59th Street in Galveston, situated between a grocery store and the Beachfront Palms Hotel.
The Galveston Police Department quickly responded and called for fire and emergency medical personnel. GPD Chief Doug Balli stated that the baby was rushed to the emergency center at UTMB Health’s John Sealy Hospital.
Tragically, the unnamed baby girl was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospital, according to Click2Houston.
Authorities are currently investigating the person responsible for leaving the baby on the roadside.
A press conference to discuss this heartbreaking incident is scheduled for 3 p.m. local time today at the Galveston County Justice Center.
This tragedy follows the recent arrest of Brianna Moore, a former Florida college student, in connection with the death of a newborn whose body was discovered wrapped in a towel and discarded in a trash bin.
