The incident happened while the baby&#8217;s mother was using the bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>A next door neighbour found the mother crying in the street and rushed to her aid. She commented that the mother was hysterical and asked her to go into the house and get her phone while she cradled the injured, dirty baby.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1316j2p-StyledParagraph enqfv0t0\"><em>\u201cAll she did was pop to the toilet and it happened just like that,\u201d<\/em> she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1316j2p-StyledParagraph enqfv0t0\"><em>\u201cThe whole thing is horrible, every time I close my eyes I just see him.
