(NewsCore) - NEW YORK -- A bundled newborn baby was found alive Sunday at the bottom of a New York City housing complex's trash compactor where police said the mother threw the boy out with the garbage.

A maintenance supervisor at the Walt Whitman Houses in Brooklyn made the alarming discovery shortly before 9:30am local time Sunday when he heard the baby's cries, officials said.

The conscious boy was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was reported to be in stable condition.

Police canvassed the complex in search of the mother. Hours later, officers emerged with a woman from the building's eighth floor.

Officials were uncertain about how many floors the baby fell in the building's garbage chute.

An associate of the maintenance worker said he was "extremely torn up" about the discovery.

Neighbors said they wished the mother had sought help.

"I saw the baby bundled up," said one resident. "Thank God it was still breathing. It was a newborn. It's like someone didn't want it. Plenty of people would have taken that child and raised it right."

The child appeared to be about 12 hours old and still had its umbilical cord attached, the source said.

Laquasia Wright, who lives on the eighth floor of the Walt Whitman Houses in Fort Greene, was charged with attempted murder and endangering the welfare of a child. Investigators suspect the baby was tossed from the eighth floor of the building.
