In Quezon City, residents discovered the body of a newborn baby boy floating in a creek in Barangay Kamuning. According to a report by GMA News Unang Balita, the infant was still attached to his umbilical cord when he was found.
A resident reportedly noticed the baby after his body became caught among rocks in the creek. The discovery prompted authorities to begin an investigation into the identity of the person who left the infant in the area.
The Quezon City Police District is also looking into whether the baby was already dead when he was thrown into the creek or if he died afterward.

Meanwhile, authorities in Nagcarlan, Laguna, were also alerted after another newborn baby was discovered inside the tank of a toilet at an eatery.
Police said efforts were made to revive the infant after he was found, but the baby could no longer be saved.
