A woman tried to flush her newborn baby down the toilet in the town of Kiskunfélegyháza, Bács-Kiskun County, on Saturday. The 33-year-old woman, who has mental health and alcohol problems, previously denied being pregnant, but that night she became ill, had contractions and began bleeding heavily. The baby was taken out of the toilet by paramedics, but it showed no signs of life. Police are investigating manslaughter.
