Then he froze in horror when he noticed something strange on the child  (Continuation in the first comment )

Dark red stains were visible on the baby’s sleeves and chest. He immediately understood that the child wasn’t simply lost.

The driver wrapped the baby in his jacket, placed him in the cab, and with trembling fingers dialed the police. Just a few minutes later, a patrol car and an ambulance arrived at the scene.

The search began. Tracks in the snow led toward the nearest village, and soon the officers found a house with its front door wide open.

Inside — a horrifying sight: on the floor lay an unconscious woman, next to a broken bottle and traces of blood. On the bed slept a man who reeked of alcohol.
