LOS ANGELES (AP) — A newborn boy was found dead in a Los Angeles alleyway after police say he was dropped from the fourth-floor window of a building. The baby was found early Thursday morning in the Skid Row neighborhood of downtown LA. Fire responders pronounced the newborn dead at the scene. Police believe the baby was dropped from the building shortly after he had been born. Investigators located a woman who had been transferred to a nearby hospital for pelvic bleeding a few hours before the baby was discovered. The woman was detained for questioning and released pending further investigation, police said.
