Politics 2012: Ron Paul strategy keeps things interesting
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 29 (UPI) -- A newborn boy rescued after his mother allegedly tried to flush him down a toilet at the fast-food restaurant where she worked was expected to survive.
The premature infant, born at about 32 weeks gestation, was listed in critical-but-stable condition Tuesday, The Kansas City Star reported.
The 20-year-old McDonald's employee gave birth in the restaurant women's room Monday afternoon, police said. Someone called an ambulance and when paramedics arrived she allegedly told them she had "flushed three times but it would not go down," the newspaper said.
A paramedic then found the baby face down in the water with no pulse and not breathing. He and his partner revived the child.
Police said the mother told the ambulance crew she didn't know she was pregnant or that she had given birth. But police said they had learned she previously told friends she was pregnant.
