Heroic officer steps in as desperate mother pretends to use toilet, abandons baby at police station
A South African mother sparks conversation as she visits a police station, begs to use the toilet, and then dumps her baby before running away.
This is contained in a fresh video which has attracted over 300,000 likes, shares, and comments on a popular social media platform.
According to the post’s description, “A lady dumped her baby at the police station.”
A statement attached at the bottom of the post reads: “A lady came into Ntuzuma Police Station with a baby, asked to use the toilets, and then she disappeared. This was Saturday; now her whereabouts are unknown.”
“The baby cried throughout the evening until morning broke. Social workers were contacted, and they said they only work Monday to Friday, which means they have no standby duties clearly.”
“However, Sgt S Masondo was able to go beyond the call of duty and carry this baby, buy nappies, warm clothes, and porridge as it was more than 12 hours since this baby had last eaten.”
“We can say a lot about the police, but there are still truly good police officers out there. Well done to Ntuzuma SAPS.”
