In northern Spain, a woman dressed as a doctor kidnapped a baby from a maternity ward and later threw it on a doormat. After being abducted from the Basurto hospital in Bilbao on Wednesday evening, the baby was found on Thursday morning in front of an apartment in the Basque city. The child was “in good health,” the newspaper said.
The kidnapper, a 24-year-old woman whose identity is known to the police, rang the bell at the apartment and then immediately disappeared. The woman was intensively sought on Thursday. The police called on the public to help.
According to the authorities, the kidnapping took place around 9 p.m. on Wednesday evening. The woman was wearing a doctor’s coat. There is every indication that she tried to kidnap several babies at once, said Josu Erkoreka of the Basque security authorities. “She entered several rooms where mothers were staying and tried the same procedure without success,” the spokesperson said.
