According to the Daily Voice Alana Jacobs found a naked baby girl around 9:30 a.m. She was lying in the wet grass with a piece of the umbilical cord still attached to the infant’s navel, says Jacobs. She says that when she got to the baby, her body was cold, like when you take meat out of a fridge. She started speaking to her and she made a crying sound. Jacobs brought her inside the house and called the police and ambulance. Police spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Malcolm Pojie confirms the baby’s 40-year-old mother has been arrested by Kuils River SAPS. They are investigating a case of child neglect and attempted murder. She will appear in the Blue Downs Magistrates’ court.
