Neighbor Dave Joseph, 45,told  County Courier Times  he witnessed the incident, which occurred shortly before 11 p.m. at the unit block of the street. A young woman had gotten out of her car and lit something on fire in the middle of the road, he said.
Joseph said the woman told him she was burning dog waste
.

"Her demeanor was calm. She knew what she was doing,"
Joseph said the woman put out the fire with a water bottle. Joseph's wife realized what was happening and began to scream. The woman attempted to flee, but neighbors stopped her from escaping.
"It was just mind-boggling. It was a nightmare even if you have a strong heart," he said. "Hopefully she'll pay for it."
The baby, which appeared to be a newborn, was still alive and breathing when fire and rescue teams arrived on the scene.
"We thought, hopefully, it would fight. It was fighting all night," said Joseph.
