Letter Carrier Keith Minchillo was delivering mail to a residence in Woonsocket, RI, recently when he heard a baby crying in distress.
He followed the shrieking sound and found the infant face down on the ground. It appeared that the baby had fallen 10 feet from an open window.
After not being able to locate the parents, Minchillo called 911. He held and soothed the baby until emergency responders arrived.
Police entered the home and found the parents, who were unaware of what had happened to their child.
The baby has since recovered. Information on the parents was not available.
