NEW YORK — A New York car thief drove off in an SUV, only to discover there was a witness to the crime: a baby in the backseat.
Maybe he had a conscience, or just didn’t want to have to change diapers, but the thief, captured on surveillance video posted on NBC television, quickly dumped his hot ride.
The parents of the seven-month-old baby girl had left her in the vehicle late Tuesday while they stopped at a store in the Bronx.
Footage showed the thief look around, then climb into the car, which had been left running, and take off. But he drove only a short distance before abandoning it and its precious cargo.
NY1 television posted pictures of the carjacker’s cute, unwilling partner in crime and quoted a caregiver saying she was unharmed and being evaluated in hospital.
There was no immediate information regarding the whereabouts of the thief.

The parents are obviously very careless. It is like an open invitation to steal the car and take the baby. They should be charged for this grave ignorances.
As for the thief he certainly had some conscience.
Thanks God the baby is safe.But with whom? The careless parents.:(
