STANTON — A 19 year old Anaheim woman was arrested Thursday for allegedly dumping her newborn baby in a dumpster behind a Mexican restaurant in Stanton.
The woman, whose name was not released, was taken under guard to a hospital to be treated for ailments related to childbirth, said Orange County sheriff’s spokesperson Jim Amormino.
When she is released, she will be booked at the Orange County jail on suspicion of murder, according to Amormino, who said the baby girl was alive when the woman gave birth.
The baby’s body was discovered about 7 p.m. Wednesday outside the Sombrero’s restaurant at 7006 Katella Ave. in Stanton, authorities said.
It wasn’t clear how long the infant had been dead when the body was found.
