According to the police officer, the woman may have called 911 before she fully recovered her baby.

“We take it seriously. We need to understand why it happened. That’s why we’re investigating right now,” says Agent Johnson.

According to CETAM, the woman was alone in her car when she gave birth. Unlike her child, first responders were not concerned about her Thursday night.
