A dead baby has been found in Schwerin. A local resident discovered the newborn in the backyard of an apartment building and informed the authorities, said a spokesman for the public prosecutor’s office in Schwerin.
According to him, there is evidence that the little girl was alive immediately after birth. Initial investigations led to the trace of a young woman as the alleged mother. The 25-year-old from Schwerin stayed in the house in Feldstadt, but did not live there. The woman was arrested and taken to the hospital.
After an initial survey, however, it was decided not to apply for an arrest warrant. First of all, the exact circumstances of the birth would have to be clarified and the cause of death determined, the spokesman for the public prosecutor’s office explained. The corpse of the infant should also be forensically examined in the coming week.
