Beneath an ash tree in a snow-covered park, a tiny soiled bundle stood out against the gleaming white. A passing dog stopped in its tracks, sniffing at the dirt-covered fabric. Its owner stepped closer then halted, horrified, and called 999.
The first police officers at the scene carefully inspected the unusual object but had identified it within minutes: it was a little baby, frozen and decomposing in the first snow of winter.
