  • A six-month-old baby girl was discovered abandoned in Times Square, New York, late on Tuesday night.
  • Police responded to a 911 call and found the child alone in a pram near West 44th Street and Seventh Avenue.
  • The baby was conscious and alert and was subsequently taken to Northwell Greenwich Village Hospital for evaluation.
  • Investigators are searching for a man believed to be the baby's father, who was last seen with the child and is known to frequent the Times Square area.
  • The investigation is ongoing, with no arrests made; abandoning a child under 14 is a felony in New York, and the state's Abandoned Infant Protection Act does not apply to a six-month-old.
