An investigation is underway after a baby was found dead inside a dumpster in South Los Angeles. Police say the baby girl is believed to have been between four and six months old, and her death is being investigated as a homicide. The child’s body was discovered late Monday night in a dumpster on Alba Street near Long Beach Avenue. Investigators have not identified any suspects and say there are very few witnesses who may have information about what happened. Police are working to determine how the baby ended up in the dumpster and who may be responsible for her death. Detectives are asking anyone who may have seen something suspicious in the area around the time the baby was found to come forward. Investigators are also working to gather additional evidence as they continue the homicide investigation. Authorities have not released the identity of the child or additional details about how she died.
