Newborn twin snatched from hospital cot

A search was under way in England tonight for a two-day-old baby - one of identical twin girls - who was snatched from a cot at the foot of her mother’s bed at a maternity ward.

The youngster went missing from ward F4 at the Wordsley Hospital in Stourbridge, West Midlands, this afternoon after two women were seen acting suspiciously in the area.
