2-year-old dropped off at Chicago fire station
Firefighters say someone left a two-year-old at a fire station on Chicago's South Side.
CHICAGO - Chicago firefighters say someone left a 2-year-old at a South Side fire station.
The person dropped the child off Monday at the station near 67th Street and Dorchester Avenue in the South Shore neighborhood.
Firefighters met with the person and took the toddler to the hospital to be checked out.
The toddler was ok and is now in the care of a family friend.
The Illinois "Safe Haven" law allows anyone to drop off an infant up to one month old.
However, the Chicago Fire Department says it will never refuse any child.
