The newborn baby was discovered by taxi commuters, in a bin, just after midday on Tuesday.
Spokesperson for Emer-G-Med medical services Kyle van Reenen said paramedics were flagged down by members of the public, in the Warwick Avenue area, after a commuter made a grizzly discovery, while waiting for his taxi at the Phoenix taxi rank, in the Durban CBD.
“Paramedics were taken to a bin, where they were shown the lifeless body of a newborn foetus, wrapped in a rubbish bag and discarded in the bin. “The scene was cordoned off and handed over to the SAPS, who will be conducting the necessary investigations,” he said.
