Baby Found Dead in a Las Vegas Dumpster

Updated:

Police are investigating the death of an infant found in a trash dumpster near Swenson and Sierra Vista.

Detectives want to question 20-year-old Darrean Williams and 37-year-old William Marshall. Police believe Williams is the mother of the child and Marshall is her boyfriend.

Police released a photo of the child they are calling Baby Jane Vista. Police have been unable to identify the child and hope someone out there will recognize her.

Just before 4 p.m., a man was going through the dumpster behind the Kona Loa Sierra Apartments and found what he thought was the body of a newborn baby. He immediately flagged down an officer driving by.

Investigators think the child was between the age of 18 months and 2-years-old. The coroner says the baby's death is the result of a homicide.
