trash chute

The lawyer was trapped in the trash compactor Saturday morning for at least 45 minutes, and was found with her feet dangling in the air: “[The arm] was barely hanging on her body.”

The infant found at the bottom of a garbage chute this weekend may have been there for as long as twelve hours, doctors say.

An 18-year-old woman was taken into custody yesterday after she allegedly threw her newborn baby out with the trash.

A baby was discovered yesterday morning crying inside of a trash chute in a Brooklyn housing project.
