A newborn baby girl in Honolulu, Hawaii is currently in stable condition after a bystander rescued her from a dumpster on December 23.<\/p>\n

According to Hawaii News Now<\/a>, the incident occurred around 11:30 p.m. Saturday, December 22, 2023. A good samaritan, who asked not to be identified, explained that he heard a woman screaming and looked out his window to see her giving birth. To his horror, he then saw her place her newborn in a nearby trash bin and walk away. He then rushed out to rescue the baby girl.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was able to just grab it out of the top of the trash and it didn\u2019t look like it was really injured or anything,\u201d the rescuer told KHON<\/a>. \u201cIt was crying when I took it out of the dumpster, which is a good sign.\u201d<\/p>\n

After emergency responders arrived, they took the baby to Kapiolani Medical Center, where she is reportedly in serious condition.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt felt like a dream almost, a scary dream, like a nightmare,\u201d he said.\u00a0\u201cIt was very sad, just a very sad moment. That\u2019s definitely scary to think about what would have happened if I wasn\u2019t here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI broke down a little bit and started crying because I didn\u2019t know how someone could just leave their kid like that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
