A five-day-old infant was discovered abandoned in roadside grass in Chiang Mai early on September 1 after an alert passerby heard her crying. Officers from the Doi Saket Police Station arrived around 5am in the Choeng Doi subdistrict and responded to the cries. Upon searching the area, they found the newborn wrapped in a brown towel and crying on the ground.
The infant was promptly transported to Doi Saket Hospital for examination and care. Estimated to be around five days old, the baby was reported to be in good health overall but was visibly exhausted. She continues to receive close monitoring. The police have informed the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security to ensure the baby's protection and care.
They are reviewing CCTV footage and checking with nearby hospitals for records of recent births to identify the individual who left the baby. The police plan to question and identify the person responsible before pursuing legal action.
