Los Angeles County sheriff’s detectives conducted a search of the Antelope Valley landfill Tuesday in hopes of finding the remains of a missing 3-week-old baby.
Details on the case were slim, but sheriff’s officials said deputies initially responded to the 2300 block of Carolyn Drive in Palmdale on a report of a missing child.
But the case quickly turned into a death investigation, and a search began for the “remains of the infant,” sheriff’s officials said.
Sheriff’s officials did not provide any additional information or indicate what led investigators to the landfill.
