Dead baby found stuffed in bag, ditched in pile of leaves behind NYCHA building in NYC

A baby boy was found dead in a black bag, ditched in a pile of leaves behind a Brooklyn public housing development Thursday, cops and law enforcement sources said.

The infant — believed to be between 5 and 7 months old – was found just after 11 a.m. behind a building on East 102nd Street, within NYCHA’s Bay View Houses in Canarsie, authorities and sources said.

The little boy’s lifeless body was discovered stuffed in a black bag and buried among a mound of fallen leaves, the sources said.

EMS workers responded and pronounced him dead at the scene, police said.

It was not immediately clear how long the child had been there before the heartbreaking discovery, according to the sources.

The city’s medical examiner’s office will officially determine how he died, police said.
