Baby Tossed Out with Garbage in Goldsboro Oct. 4, 1924

Garbage Cart Picks Up the Body of Baby

By Associated Press

Goldsboro, Oct. 4—The body of a white male infant, apparently about a month old, was found here today by the driver of a city garbage wagon. The man was unloading his wagon at the incinerator when the body fell out, he said. The driver was unable to say form which section the body was collected, as he had been in various parts of the city before driving to the incinerator.

The body was interred at the city’s expense and an investigation is being conducted.
