BRIDGEPORT, Conn. — Bridgeport police and fire crews investigated Monday afternoon a report of a woman who was seen allegedly putting an object in the water at Ash Creek.
Officials said a call came in at around 1:30 p.m. on Monday regarding a woman who walked into Ash Creek and put something in the water. There was concern that the object was a small child, according to officials.
Responders conducted a grid search of the water area. The tides were low at the time of the investigation, and officials said something would have been found if it was put there.
Police located a woman and she was taken to the hospital for evaluation. Police also spoke to the father of her children, confirming they are all fine. It was also pointed out that the woman would not have access to small children, police said.
The incident has been cleared, officials said.
