Newborn baby found down drain in Quakers Hill by passing cyclists
A NEWBORN baby boy found down a drain in Sydney’s north west this morning has sparked an urgent manhunt for the child’s parents.
The newborn was found about 7.30am by cyclists riding along the M7 Motorway cycleway at Quakers Hill.
The cyclists heard a baby’s cry coming from the drain and found the child when they lifted the top of the drain away with the help of passers-by.
Police later removed the newborn from the 2.5m-deep drain.
The baby has no obvious signs of injury, but is being taken to the Children’s Hospital at Westmead for precautionary checks.
Anyone with information about the identity of the child, or how he came to be in the drain, is urged to come forward.

How horrid. I'm so glad that someone found the child before the worst happened!
Who knows how he came to be there? He got have got there anyway.
I'm really hoping they find who is responsible, and can identify the child - most of all, I'm really hoping he finds himself in a stable and loving home.
