Baby found dehydrated and drugged in parents' squalid Tetuán home

Police in Tetuán rescued an infant found in critical condition, suffering from dehydration and drug exposure, within a squalid home environment. The discovery was made after officers responded to a call reporting a domestic disturbance.

Upon arrival at the dwelling, authorities encountered a scene of neglect and intoxication. The baby was found near the bedside of its father, who had reportedly passed out due to excessive alcohol consumption. The unsanitary conditions of the home were a significant factor in the child's compromised state.

The infant, exhibiting signs of severe dehydration and the effects of narcotics, was immediately taken into protective custody. Emergency medical services attended to the child, stabilizing its condition before transfer.
