Authorities are investigating into how a baby ended up in a dumpster Friday morning after the mother gave birth to the child inside a Hurst restaurant.
Police say the baby was born at a Souper Salad restaurant, where the mother worked, but was later found in a nearby dumpster in the 900 block of Melbourne Road.
Authorities were first called to the scene at about 9:38 a.m. after they received a call from a witness who reported a medical emergency. Upon their arrival, police found a female believed to be the mother at the location and the baby alive inside the dumpster.
Both the mother and child appeared to be in healthy condition but were transported to a nearby hospital for evaluation, said Nathan Duermeyer, a spokesman for Hurst police.

Usually postpartum depression does not set in that quick.
She had probably been telling herself she couldn’t possibly be pregnant, right up until the baby was in her hands.
Regardless, the most important thing is to find the baby a stable family as quickly as possible. There will be a waiting list of already-checked-out adoptive parents.
As hot as it is in North Texas right now that baby is lucky it was found.
Thanks for posting...glad to see there’s at least one Souper Salad within a half hour of where I live. lol, I was getting worried after hearing a rumor the one in Lewisville had closed.
My Daughter is still sleeping but I’m going to go up and hug her now.
