A mother abandoned her baby in Augsburg, Germany, by laying him in the Nativity Scene at church. While many would frown at her for being so heartless, this woman knew someone would be at the church shortly and would see her son. The cops have found her and she stated she is going through some difficult times right now and knew someone else would be able to care for him.
It would be the parish priest that would come upon him, as he knelt down to pray he heard the baby cry. Someone had laid a baby inside the manger, placing a small red carpet over him to keep him warm until someone found him. Only problem is the church was only 12 degrees C. The priest took the baby immediately to his own home next door, calling the authorities in the meantime.
His given name: Christian
(Course she could’ve just went to the police and explained.)
