In December 2000, three days before Christmas, police lieutenant Gene Eyster received a late night phone call about a baby found abandoned in a cardboard box.
The newborn had been discovered by college students in a South Bend, Indiana, apartment building hallway.
“He was wrapped in blankets and a flannel shirt,” Eyster, 70, tells TODAY.com. There was no note.
On his way to the hospital, Eyster says he picked up a teddy bear to bring the baby a “little bit of comfort.”
“I just wanted him to know he was cared about,” Eyster says.
