Police seek family of toddler found wandering in Newark

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- Authorities say a toddler wearing only a diaper and a dress has been found wandering on a street in Newark, New Jersey.

Newark police say a passer-by found the shoeless 2-year-old girl on Stuyvesant Avenue shortly before 8 a.m. Tuesday.

The toddler was taken to a hospital for a medical evaluation, but authorities say she appeared to be unhurt.

Authorities were working Tuesday afternoon to determine the identities of the child's parents or guardians and whether she lived in the area where she was found.
