Missing Mum Found After Baby Born In Toilets

The mother of a newborn baby abandoned in public toilets at an amusement arcade has been found and is receiving medical treatment.

The infant was named April by staff at Ormskirk Hospital in Southport, where she is being treated.

She was just hours old when workers at Silcock's Amusement Arcade found her in the disabled toilet on Thursday evening.

An image of the child, wearing a pink playsuit, was released by Merseyside police as they sought to identify her mother and said she was "not in trouble".

Police said there were signs that April was "born where she was found".

Officers said they had traced the mother to an address in the Merseyside area.

Superintendent Claire Richards said: "I would like to thank the local community, the online community and the media for their assistance in this matter."
