Overview
- Investigators report the infant was a girl, about two days old, born alive and placed in a container between November 21–25.
- A worker discovered the child dead on November 25 while sorting construction debris at a Bremen recycling facility.
- Police and prosecutors have begun a broad multilingual appeal using videos, posters, flyers, QR-linked materials and social media to reach potential witnesses.
- Authorities ask residents to report women or girls who were recently pregnant and now have no newborn, suspicious activity near waste containers, or marked recent physical or behavioral changes.
- Investigators say the mother may have been in a desperate situation, and they urge tips to the Kriminaldauerdienst at 0421 362-3888 or anonymously via the police portal, while also examining whether construction waste carried the infant to the site.
