Fetus Found In Parking Lot
 

Preserved Fetus In Medical Container Found At Mall
Police Checking Mall Surveillance Video

ORLANDO, Florida -- A preserved human fetus was discovered inside a medical container Tuesday night in a mall parking lot in Orlando, Florida.

Orlando police said a street sweeper made the unusual discovery at about 10:15 p.m. at a shopping center located on Michigan and Delaney.

Initially, police responded to the discovery thinking it was a case of an aborted baby or perhaps a newborn dumped in the parking lot.

However, detectives said the case did not make sense after discovering there was no blood, no umbilical cord or signs of trauma.

The container was apparently from a medical facility and had tracking numbers on it.

Police are checking with abortion clinics, hospitals and labs to see if they are missing a fetus.

"There is a good possibility that it (fetus) was in transport form some location to another and obviously it has no business being in the parking lot," Orlando police spokesman Joel Right said.

The medical examiner is investigating the discovery.

Investigators hope mall surveillance video will help them find who left the fetus.

I find fetuses all the time.....it is at this point i keep them in a jar with the others :)
