Woman Arrested After Attempting to Flush Her Baby Down the Toilet

A San Antonio woman is in custody after giving birth in a Whataburger bathroom and attempting to push and flush her newborn baby girl down the toilet, authorities say.

Police report that two hours after Mallori Strait entered the Whataburger lobby, she went into the bathroom for a few hours.
