An eight-week-old baby boy is safe after being found outside in a frosty car seat in a driveway in London, Ont.
The infant was transported to hospital after police were called to a residence on Emery Street at 5:40 a.m. Tuesday morning, London police said in a statement.
The child was “cleared medically” and turned over to the care of Children’s Aid Society, according to police.
Anothony Franze, who found the child, tells CTV London he heard what he thought was a cat making noise as he was leaving his house around 5:30 a.m.
When he realized a baby had been left in a neighbour’s driveway, he brought the child inside and his fiancée called 911.
The boy was wearing clothing and had a blanket, but his face and hands were exposed and the seat had frost on it, Franze said.
Environment Canada says temperatures in London reached -6 C overnight.
“Both parents have been identified and an investigation is continuing,” police said.
Any person with information is asked to call London police at 519-661-5670 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
