Police in Bloemfontein are seeking public assistance to trace a suspect connected to a case of concealment of birth after a baby’s head was found in Bloemside Phase II, Free State. The discovery was reported after a passer-by witnessed dogs dragging the baby’s head in a street in the area.

The disturbing discovery prompted police and forensic personnel to attend the scene, where only the baby’s head was found. Authorities have opened a case of concealment of birth and are appealing to anyone with information that could assist the investigation to come forward.

What Happened in Bloemside Phase II, Bloemfontein

According to the South African Police Service, the incident occurred in Bloemside Phase II, where a passer-by came across the baby’s head being dragged by dogs in the street.

The witness alerted police, who attended the scene. Upon arrival, officers found a small baby’s head without the rest of the body.

Police have not provided further details about the circumstances surrounding the discovery. The available information also does not establish the identity of the baby or explain how the remains came to be in the area.

Because of this, members of the public are being asked to provide any information that could help investigators establish what happened and identify the person connected to the case.

The incident has been registered at Bloemspruit Police Station as a case of concealment of birth.

At this stage, SAPS has not publicly identified a suspect or provided information about a possible motive. No conclusions about responsibility should therefore be drawn from the discovery while the investigation remains ongoing.

The case is being handled by detectives at Bloemspruit Police Station, who are relying on information from members of the community and anyone who may have knowledge of the circumstances surrounding the incident.
