LOS ANGELES - Evangelina McCrary and her sister Angelica Blount were out for their daily walk along the riverbed in Compton, Los Angeles, on Friday when they heard a strange noise. 
 
 "My sister said, 'Can you hear a baby crying?' And I said no, I don't know," Blount told CBS Los Angeles. "That might be a cat. And she said, 'No, that is a baby.'" 
 
 Evangelina was shaken by the sound. 
 
 "It made me really sad to hear the baby's wails," said McCrary. 
 
 Deputies from the Compton Sheriff's Station received a report around 4 p.m. Friday of a baby crying in the riverbed located between 136th Street and Slater Avenue, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Sgt. Marvin Jaramilla. 
 
 Upon their arrival, deputies heard "a baby's muffled cry" and found the infant - believed to have been born within the previous 36 to 48 hours - buried alive under pieces of asphalt and rubble inside a crevice located along the bike path, Jaramilla said. 
 
 Deputies removed the pieces of asphalt and debris and rescued the baby from the crevice, according to Jaramilla. 
 
 "The baby was wrapped in a blanket and cold to the touch," said Jaramilla in a statement. 
 
 Officials on Saturday confirmed the blanket was hospital-issued. 
 
 After checking the baby's vital signs, deputies called for Compton Fire Department paramedics, who treated and transported her to a local hospital. 
 
 The baby is currently listed in stable condition and will remain under hospital observation. 
 
 Nearby resident Jesse Brew, a grandfather, was upset to hear about the callous disregard for life. 
 
 "I know we living in some bad times, but damn," he said, "They need to catch this person. You know, you need to go to jail. That's the place for you." 
 
 Sheriff's deputies sought the public's help Saturday for information on the girl's identity. 
 
 Officials said they wanted to remind the public about the Safe Surrender program. A newborn can be dropped off at any hospital or fire house within 72 hours of the birth -- no questions asked. 
 
 Detectives from the department's Special Victims Bureau asked anyone with information regarding the newborn to call them at (877) 710-5273.

 "Anytime you have a helpless newborn child who can't help themselves, it is frustrating," Blount said. 
 
 As deputies canvassed the area, they heard a baby's "muffled cry" and discovered a newborn girl buried alive a foot deep under pieces of asphalt and rubble inside a crevice located along a bike path, LASD said. 
 
 Deputies had to remove pieces of asphalt and debris to rescue the baby, who was wrapped in a blanket and cold to the touch, officials said. 
 
 The newborn was treated at the scene and transported to a hospital. She was in stable condition and remained at the hospital for observation.

 According to the Safe Surrender law, parents can drop off their newborn at any hospital or fire station confidentially within 72 hours without fear of prosecution, said Sgt. Marvin Jaramilla of the LASD. 
 
 The newborn was 24 to 36 hours old when she was found. 
 
 As of Saturday she was two to three days old, which is within the Safe Surrender window. 
 
 "They could have done the right thing, and instead they came and dumped it here," said Angel Flores, a nearby resident. "I don't know the situation they have or what's going on, but this is not right. This is not human." 
 
 The person who did this, if found, could be charged with attempted murder and child endangerment, detectives said. 
 
 Anyone with information about this crime is asked to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department - Special Victims Bureau at (877) 710-LASD (5273).

 CBS2’s Jeff Nguyen spoke to Ryan McCrary. He said his mom is the one who heard the baby cry before alerting police. 
 
 His mom was on her daily walk down a bike path along the riverbed when she heard what sounded like crying. His mother was walking with her sister, at first, neither was sure what they were hearing. 
 
 “She she heard a noise, sounded like a kitten crying or a baby so she went to look a little bit closer. She decided I guess to call 911.” 
 
 His mom, he told Nguyen, “felt really emotional. She came back home to tell me. She was really distraught about that.” 
 
 Nearby resident Jesse Brew, a grandfather, was upset to hear about the callous disregard for life.

 COMPTON, Calif. (AP) — Authorities are looking for the mother of a newborn baby girl who was buried alive near a Southern California bike path. 
 
 The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department says the search for the mother continues Sunday. The public is being asked to help. 
 
 The girl, believed to be less than 36 hours old, was cold to the touch when she was discovered in Compton Friday and was hospitalized in stable condition for observation. 
 
 Angelica Blount says she and her sister were walking when they heard a sound. Blount thought it could be a wailing cat but Evangelina McCrary was sure it was a baby. 
 
 Sheriff's deputies were called. They followed the sound to a hole near a fence that was covered with asphalt and rubble. Inside was the child, wrapped in a hospital blanket.
– Two sisters were out taking a walk in Compton, Calif., on Friday afternoon when they heard a baby crying—or was it a cat? Evangelina McCrary and Angelica Blount weren't sure, but two deputies soon responded to their call and found a newborn buried alive under rubble and pieces of asphalt on a bike path by a riverbed, CBS News reports. The child was inside what's being described as a crevice. "The baby was wrapped in a blanket and cold to the touch," says Sgt. Marvin Jaramilla of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. CBS Los Angeles notes that officials later confirmed the blanket was the type provided by hospitals. Paramedics took the baby to the hospital, where she's reported to be in stable condition. "I know we living in some bad times, but damn," says a nearby resident and grandfather. "They need to catch this person. You know, you need to go to jail. That's the place for you." Indeed, ABC7 reports that the person who discarded the child could face attempted murder and child endangerment charges. The baby was likely born no more than 48 hours before being discovered, which NBC Los Angeles points out falls within the "Safe Surrender window": Parents can leave a newborn at a hospital or fire station, no questions asked and without the prospect of prosecution, within 72 hours of birth. The AP reports that the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department was continuing to search for the girl's mother. (Police were able to track down the mother who left her newborn in the manger of a Nativity scene.)
