New NYPD video shows the mysterious masked person who authorities believe abandoned a newborn baby girl stuffed inside a tote bag in front of a Bronx apartment building.
The footage, released early Monday, shows the unidentified person walking on the rain-drenched Morrisania sidewalk Sunday morning with a hood pulled up over his or her head, wearing a black face mask and carrying a green tote bag.
The infant, who appears to be only a few days old — and was swaddled in blankets inside the tote bag — was dumped outside a building on Reverend James Polite Ave. near East 167th Street around 6 a.m., cops said.
