Auburn Police officer Andrew Lindgren, responding to a domestic violence call Wednesday morning at a homeless camp along the Green River, found a 14-month-old girl in the ruins surrounded in filth and drug paraphernalia.

Lindgren rescued the baby girl and brought her to a local hospital for a quick checkup to make sure she was all right.

The child, who reportedly is doing OK, is now in state custody.
