Overview

• A cyclist alerted police after hearing crying near Calzada de los Misterios and Euzkaro in Colonia Industrial, where officers found the newborn wrapped in a blood‑stained jacket and called paramedics.
• Doctors reported approximately 25 weeks’ gestation with extreme prematurity, respiratory distress, and risk of sepsis, and the infant was admitted in serious but stable condition.
• The city’s Security Secretariat and Prosecutor’s Office opened an investigation and are reviewing surveillance footage to identify those responsible, with no arrests publicly announced.
• Video circulated by journalist Carlos Jiménez appears to show a woman giving birth on the sidewalk, receiving tissues from a companion, reentering a car, and leaving the baby at the scene.
• This incident is the third reported infant abandonment in roughly 20 days in Mexico City, following a Tacubaya case that led to prosecution and a newborn found at Metro UAM‑I who later died.
