A 23-year-old woman, who police believe to be the boy’s mother, was taken into custody a short while later with charges still pending as of Sunday afternoon.

When contacted by DailyMail.com, the NYPD declined to identify the woman, citing an ongoing investigation.

A spokesperson for the department said additional details will be made available in the case shortly.

Authorities were alerted by a woman who lives next door to the alleyway.

She told dispatchers that she had stepped outside of her home to empty the trash when she heard the baby’s cries.

It's currently unclear how long the baby and been laying in the street for.

A video captured by a neighbor and uploaded the neighborhood watch app Citizen claimed the baby had been left outside of the home the previous evening.
