 CPS has been called to assist.

Martee Boose with the Houston Fire Department said: 'Those are tragic stories, and they are stories that don't need to happen.

'If a citizen has a newborn that is 60 days or younger, they are able to drop them off at a fire station or a hospital and those individuals will not ask them any information about themselves. 

'The most information they are permitted to ask them about is maybe the baby's medical history to make sure the baby is getting the best medical care.'
