BATON ROUGE - Police are searching for the parents of an unidentified one-year-old boy who was found alone at a hotel on Wednesday.
The Baton Rouge Police Department said housekeepers at the American Inn Motel found the child in a hotel room shortly before 12 p.m. Police believe that the child was intentionally abandoned at the motel by his parents. They likely used fake names to sign in to the motel because they cannot find who booked the room.
On Thursday afternoon, BRPD said that the parents have yet to be identified and the boy is in the custody of DCFS.
A photo of the child was not provided.
