HOUSTON (March 18, 2009)--A newborn baby has been found alive in a trash bag inside an abandoned clothes dryer at a Houston apartment complex.

Witnesses reported hearing an infant's faint cry Tuesday afternoon and found the baby girl with the umbilical cord freshly cut, police said.

The child was taken to Texas Children's Hospital and was reportedly in good condition.

Police were searching for the infant's mother and called the department's canine unit to the complex.

The baby weighed about 6 pounds and 12 ounces and appeared to be African-American.

I would love to know why such horrible people can have kids, and yet the people who would be the best parents ever can't have kids. Such as my friend's boss, she is very very very good with my brother, yet she can't have kids, and look at this story!
