Baby found abandoned at dental office
Henry County authorities say an infant was dropped off at a dental office in Stockbridge early Sunday moing.
The baby boy, only a few hours old, was found outside the office around 5 a.m., which is near Piedmont Henry Hospital.
Police say a man dropped the baby off.
The infant was taken to the hospital in good condition.
Henry County police say they found the child's mother and are currently talking with her.
Authorities say a 911 call was placed from the Hudson Bridge Walmart informing 911 where the baby could be located.
"We believe the gentleman did go to a location to try to make a 911 call from a pay phone, however was unsuccessful. The location where he did make the call was about a mile away," said Joey Smith, with the Henry County Police Department.
Police say they believe the 16-year-old mother gave birth around 2 a.m. or 3 a.m. and was dropped off a couple hours later.
The Department of Children and Family is involved with the case and police are looking to see if there will be any charges filed.
