Beto O’Rourke: If Anti-Gun Law Passes, Americans Will ‘Turn in Their’ Firearms
A dead baby was found at a recycling plant in California early Friday, authorities said.
The baby’s body was found on a conveyor belt in the plant on Charles Street in San Jose.
Detectives and the Santa Clara coroner’s office responded to the facility, the GreenWaste Recovery plant, reported the San Francisco Chronicle.
Two workers at the facility told Fox 2 they were told that a dead baby was found on a conveyor belt.
Photographs and video footage published by the outlet showed at least four emergency vehicles outside an entrance to the facility, with a large garage-type door mostly raised to let people in and out during the probe.
“This is just a sad story for everybody involved,” Gina Tepoorten of the San Jose Police Department told KGO. “The employees were sorting out the recycles and that is when they located the deceased infant on a conveyor belt.”
She said the coroner’s office will conduct an autopsy to find out how the baby died. The race or gender of the baby isn’t known yet, she added.
