Murder Charges in Case of Newborn Found Buried Alive

By Published on November 29, 2015

CNN) The crying coming from under a block of asphalt sounded like it was from a cat to Angelica Blount. But it turned out to be an abandoned baby that police say was deliberately buried under debris along a Los Angeles area walking path.

Blount was walking in Compton on Friday, when her sister Evangelina McCrary pointed the sound out to her.

“She told me, ‘Can you hear the baby crying?'” Blount told CNN affiliate KABC. “And I said, ‘I don’t know; it might be a cat.’ And my sister said, ‘No, it’s a baby crying.'”

They called 911.

Two deputies from the LA Sheriff’s Department found the newborn under pieces of asphalt and debris inside a crevice.
