"Fetus death inquiry requires new tests
NEW YORK — An autopsy of a fetus found in a teenage girl’s shopping bag at a New York City lingerie store was inconclusive, and more tests will be needed to determine how the fetus died, the city medical examiner’s office said. The needed tests could take a couple of weeks as police continue to look into the macabre case. Preliminary reports from detectives suggest the fetus was born alive and possibly had been asphyxiated, but chief New York Police Department spokesman John McCarthy said the case was under investigation."
