PHOENIX (AP) — Police were searching Wednesday for the parents of a newborn baby girl who was left in front of a suburban Phoenix home, her umbilical cord still attached.

"At this point, our detectives have kind of exhausted all of our initial possible leads that we had," Mesa police spokesman Steve Berry said at a news conference. "We have had no success in locating either Mom or Dad for this child."

The 7-pound-8-ounce infant remained hospitalized, but doctors said she appeared to be healthy. Police estimate she was hours old when she was found, Berry said.

James and Roseanne McCulloh said their son spotted a baby carrier on top of an irrigation box Tuesday morning while he was standing on the front porch. He then gently removed a metal panel that was on top of it.

"I saw him jump 20 feet, and he said 'There's a baby in it,' " Roseanne McCulloh said. "I ran over there. She wasn't blue. I touched her little arm, and I opened up the blanket. She was just beautiful."
