New York City police on Tuesday released images of a woman wanted for questioning after an infant girl with her umbilical cord still attached was abandoned at a busy midtown Manhattan subway station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The baby was left Monday in a passageway at the 34th Street-Penn Station subway stop during the typically crowded morning rush hour. The subway stop is attached to the broader Penn Station complex \u2014 the country\u2019s busiest rail hub, which sits underneath the Madison Square Garden arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Authorities are asking for the public\u2019s help in identifying the woman, who is seen on a 2-second security camera video clip on a city sidewalk carrying something that appears to be wrapped in a bundle and holding it like someone would hold a baby. Police are calling it a case of endangering the welfare of a child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The infant was found unattended and wrapped in a blanket, police said. She was taken to a hospital for an evaluation and listed in stable condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A team from the city\u2019s Administration for Children\u2019s Services was \u201cdeployed to ensure the ongoing well-being of the baby,\u201d a spokesperson said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
