Smelling a foul odor coming from the room, the landlord opened the door to check and was shocked to discover a dead newborn baby with its umbilical cord still intact lying in the toilet.
On the morning of October 9, information from the People's Committee of Bac Ly Ward, Dong Hoi City (Quang Binh) said that the owner of a rented house located in Sub-area 2, Bac Ly Ward had just discovered the body of a newborn baby in the toilet of the rented room.
Accordingly, at around 4pm on October 8, many students renting rooms at Ms. Nguyen TC’s boarding house in Bac Ly ward smelled a foul smell coming from the first room of the boarding house.

However, when Ms. C. and many others opened the door, they were shocked to discover inside the toilet of this rented room was a newborn baby with its umbilical cord still attached (about 5-6 days old) who had died many days before.
After receiving information about the incident, Bac Ly Ward Police coordinated with relevant agencies to go to the scene to record the situation and investigate the cause.
It is known that the rented room where the body of the newborn was found is currently unoccupied. About 2 months ago, a woman rented a room here, but she moved out more than a week ago.
Currently, the police force has also handed over the body of the newborn baby boy to the local authorities for burial.
