UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (AP) - Police in the Maryland suburbs of Washington are investigating after a dead fetus was found in the women’s bathroom of a restaurant.
The Washington Post reports that the fetus was found Wednesday morning in Upper Marlboro in Prince George’s County. Police did not identify the restaurant.
Prince George’s County police spokeswoman Christina Cotterman said the fetus was sent to Baltimore for an autopsy to determine the cause of death.

Cotterman said that police “want her to get the medical attention she may need.”
