   A newborn child has been found in a plastic bag tossed in the dumpster of a Houston apartment complex. 
   
   An infant is recovering in the hospital after being left in a large garbage bin in a southeast Houston apartment complex. 
   
   It happened at the Reserve at Windmill Lakes on Almeda Genoa Road at around 8 a.m. Tuesday. 
   
   Houston police say the child was barely breathing when he was found. 
   
   
   
   A worker was dumping trash when he heard a noise. 
   
   "I opened a white plastic garbage bag and saw the baby," said Carlos Mitchell in Spanish. "He was cold. Maybe hours old." 
   
   Paramedics took the baby boy to a hospital where he is apparently doing well. Investigators are trying to find out who the mother is. They believe she's a teen girl who lives on the property. 
   
   Child Protective Services will also investigate the incident. 
   
   
   
   The so called "Baby Moses" law was passed to prevent incidents like this that often don't end so well. You can take a baby to any place that offers 24-hour medical care and leave it with a person, according to the law.
target: – A baby boy is reportedly in good condition after he was found, cold, wet, and purple-faced in a Houston apartment building's trash. Maintenance worker Carlos Michel discovered the newborn after hearing sounds coming from a blue Dumpster yesterday morning, the Houston Chronicle reports. "I almost had a heart attack," he says. He stepped on a bucket and looked over the trash bags; the baby was in one, upside down alongside homework and leftover food, Fox News reports. "He was cold. Maybe hours old," Michel says, per MyFox Houston. Michel wrapped the boy in his shirt and warmed him in a pickup truck; the child never opened his eyes before paramedics rushed him to the hospital, Michel says. Child Protective Services will take custody of the baby, born to a 16-year-old girl who acknowledged putting him in the Dumpster, though details haven't been released. She was also hospitalized. Texas, notes the Chronicle, has a "Moses law" that allows parents to surrender newborns without fear of repercussions. It's not yet clear whether the mother will face charges.
