<p>A 17-year-old girl accused of stuffing her infant daughter in a plastic bag and leaving it in the backyard of a home in Elmira, N.Y. has been indicted on attempted murder and other charges.<br />
Harriette Hoyt of Sayre, Pa. was arraigned Thursday on charges that also include reckless endangerment and abandonment of a child, according to the Chemung County prosecutor’s office.<br />
Authorities say the teen was visiting friends in Elmira on August 5 when she left her 8-month-old baby in a garbage bag near some bushes.<br />
The baby girl wasn’t discovered until three days later by neighbors checking out animal-like sounds found the baby with its legs sticking out of a bag.<br />
Neighbors Kayla and Karen Seals said they heard a noise, and discovered the baby, who they found the be dirty and dehydrated.<br />
“My sister came out off the porch and went to the side to the backyard of my neighbor’s house with a stick, thinking it was a dog,” Karen Seals told <a href="http://www.weny.com/story/36090496/baby-found-alive-in-trash-in-elmira">WENY-TV</a>.<br />
The child spent 10 days recovering in a Rochester hospital, then was placed in foster care.<br />
Hoyt remains in jail. Public advocate attorney John Brennan says his office continues to review the evidence.</p>
