"Under New York state law, a parent who is unable or unwilling to care for an infant younger than 30 days old is allowed to give them up if they take proper measures and ensure the child's safety."
"The latest baby-welfare incident comes amid increased anxiety after a seven-month-old baby girl was shot during a gang-related shootout in Brooklyn earlier this month."
"New York's mayor, Zohran Mamdani, called the girl's murder an unthinkable loss and said: We cannot accept this violence as normal."
A six-month-old girl was found unharmed in a stroller in Times Square. Police received an emergency call and transported her to a hospital. They are searching for the father, using surveillance footage and local canvassing. New York law allows parents to safely surrender infants under 30 days old. Recent incidents of violence against children have heightened concerns, including the fatal shooting of a seven-month-old girl in Brooklyn. Mayor Zohran Mamdani condemned the violence, stating it cannot be accepted as normal.
