OCALA, Fla. (AP) - Authorities are still trying to identify a
baby who was found abandoned in a box in Ocala.
Police hope someone will come forward if they recognize the baby
girl, whose picture was released Monday.
Police said a driver reported finding the baby Saturday in a
cardboard box beside a dirt road. A spokeswoman for the Department
of Children and Families says the baby is in good health but did
suffer several ant bites.
Doctors say the baby was less than a week old when found. She
was taken to a hospital for observation and later placed into the
custody of the Department of Children and Families.
