Cuyahoga County officials announced on Thursday that the baby girl who was located at an RTA bus stop in late July has had DNA tests done to help identify the unidentified child's parents.
According to Mary Louise Madigan with Cuyahoga County, officials are currently awaiting the DNA results of the baby girl while the County continues to find a permanent home for the child.
At this time, the little girl is in the care of a foster care family while the investigation continues.
The incident happened on July 20 when RTA officers were called to the bus stop at East 105th Street and Superior Avenue at around 11 p.m. on Saturday night. When police arrived, they found 'Baby Doe' in the arms of 67-year-old Bennie Anderson with EMS crews seeking to examine the infant.
Anderson was not cooperative with officers about his identity and would only refer to the baby as "Rambo." EMS personnel noted that he was not holding the baby's head properly as his hands were trembing. Police eventually did determine Anderson's identity and found that he had an arrest warrant for parole violation.
At about the same time, a woman with a stroller came across the street to the bus stop. She told police that she was the baby's mother and Anderson's wife. The woman also said she worked for the IRS and that she was "Federal Judge Love." She later referred to herself as "Love Anderson," but police were unable to verify her identity.
