A baby boy found in a wheelie bin is 'doing well' after being found on a Lincolnshire estate. A shocked woman alerted other people on the street after she heard crying coming from a brown garden waste recycling bin in Langton Close, Grimsby.
Authorities were soon alerted to the discovery, with police and ambulance services arriving shortly afterwards. The baby - who still had his umbilical cord attached - is reportedly doing well in hospital after East Midlands Ambulance Service paramedics arrived at the scene at about 5pm on Sunday, June 19, Lincolnshire Live reports.
His mum is being supported by the appropriate services and is thought to be responding well. One resident said: "It is just desperately sad. It’s such a relief the little boy seems to be ok and your heart goes out to the mum. She needs love and support and hopefully something good will still come from this."
