Mummified baby found in Fla. storage unit

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - A partially mummified baby was
found wrapped in newspaper in a warehouse self-storage
unit and is believed to have been born sometime in the
1950s, authorities said.

The remains were found Monday in 1950s-era papers
inside a suitcase contained inside a second suitcase.

The storage unit had been rented by a couple in 1996,
but the man died several years ago and the woman died
in the past year, said police spokesman Officer Jeff
Messer.  

"We're not giving out any names yet because we're
finding more than one or two people had access to
their warehouse," Messer said Tuesday.

Investigators believe it's a "very safe bet" the baby
was born as early as the 1950s, but until the autopsy
is completed, details remain murky, Messer said. An
autopsy was scheduled Tuesday.

The body was found by the couple's daughter, who came
from New Jersey after being told that the contents of
the storage unit would be auctioned off because the
rent had not been paid, police said.
