Garda investigation after baby found in pram in Tralee cemetery

Gardaí are investigating a case where a baby was found alone in a pram in a cemetery in Tralee, Co Kerry.

It is understood the infant was left in the pram alone for several hours, one Garda source said.

A gathering had taken place in the area earlier at Rath cemetery, which later dispersed, at which point it was believed the pram and child were left behind.

A Garda spokesman confirmed officers in Tralee attended an incident at Rath cemetery on Thursday morning. “A baby was located in a pram and at this time investigations are ongoing,” he said.
