Three high school students playing in a vacant lot in barangay Talamban found a fetus around 10 a.m. the other day. The fetus was estimated to be around five months old.

The children; Jemuel Gudes, 15, and Janover Ocba and Lemuel Principe, both 14, said they found a cardboard box near a firewall in the said vacant lot.

When they opened the box they found a fetus wrapped in plastic and reported their find to the barangay officials.

Barangay officials took the fetus away and later employee Lito Talurete brought the fetus to St. Francis Funeral Homes.
