Teen-Mother Accused of Throwing Newborn Baby in Trash | Police Interrogation of Alexis Avila ‘We just found a baby in the trash’: Hobbs teen faces attempted murder charges HOBBS, N.M. (KRQE) – New details are emerging about a teen mother accused of throwing her newborn baby in the trash. Hobbs Police arrested 18-year-old Alexis Avila over the weekend for attempted murder. At a press conference on Monday, Interim Police Chief August Fons says he’s never seen anything like this during his time in law enforcement. He explains why Avila was released so soon after being taken into custody. “At the time the warrant was signed by the judge and the judge signed a $10,000 unsecured bond appearance bond and at that point, she was released about an hour later.” A criminal complaint says Avila claimed she didn’t know she was pregnant until she went to a doctor for stomach pain last Thursday. Avila says she gave birth in her bathroom the next day. She then reportedly told authorities that she panicked. She says she wrapped the baby boy in a towel, placed it in a trash bag, and drove around before eventually throwing the baby in a dumpster at the Broadmoor Shopping Center. The baby would spend six cold hours in the dumpster. Three people who were dumpster diving found the baby after hearing a cry. They first thought it was a kitten when they picked up the bag. Surveillance video captured the scene as a woman pulls the baby from the trash bag. The woman then tries to comfort the baby boy who can be heard in the 911 call. Police are then seen arriving at the scene. Joe Imbriale owns Rig Outfitters and Homestore and his surveillance cameras are pointed toward those dumpsters.
