The world has once again proven that light beats dark almost all of the time.
You may remember “Baby India”, the newborn girl found wrapped only in a plastic bag in the woods in Georgia. She was found earlier this month, and already more than 1,000 people have stepped forward and offered to give her a forever home.
TODAY reports that folk continue to reach out to Forsyth County authorities, wanting to give the newborn – found crying and covered in blood – a second chance after her tough start to life.
Speaking on the response, Forsyth County Sheriff Ron Freeman said: “It’s amazing the number of people who are looking to take on a new life into their families and we got somebody who tried to throw one away.”
Police in Georgia have released heart-stopping bodycam video showing the rescue of an abandoned newborn baby.

The little girl in question, nicknamed “Baby India”, was found at around 10 p.m. on June 6 in a wooded area. A nearby family had heard her cries and went to investigate, thereafter stumbling upon the baby, who was covered in blood and still had her umbilical cord attached.
Body cam footage released by the Sheriff’s Office appears to catch the sounds of a crying baby as responders rush to help. There was no sign of her mother at the scene, however.
Police discovered “Baby India” wrapped in nothing but a plastic bag, They assessed her for injuries and wrapped her in a blanket, before rushing her away so she could receive the relevant care.
As yet, the child’s mother hasn’t come forward, with families lining up to give her the forever home she truly deserves.
Anyone with any information regarding the mother, Baby India’s birth or any family ties, is urged to contact the Sheriff’s Office on 770-781-3087.
