CEBU — A dead newborn inside a shoebox was abandoned in Mandaue City, Cebu, authorities said Thursday.

A passerby on Wednesday noticed a foul smell that came from heaps of trash along Ouano Avenue in Barangay Subangdaku.

After reporting to the authorities, they discovered that the stench originated from a black shoebox. When they opened it, they saw the dead baby.

The Mandaue City Police Office is looking for the person who abandoned the baby. It said suspects could face criminal charges.
