A public bus in Changsha City in central China's Hunan Province received a special passenger on Tuesday night, as an unaccompanied one-year old baby climbed onto the bus.
When the bus door opened, both the driver and passengers were surprised to see a baby climb the door steps. A female passenger behind the boy looked around but failed to find any adult taking care of the toddler.
The bus driver pulled over the bus with the consent of the passengers, and called police for help.
Some passengers on the bus volunteered to take care of the baby while waiting for the arrival of police officers.
After receiving the call, officers of a local police station checked with nearby neighbourhood, and managed to find the baby boy's parents an hour later.
"My baby boy was playing outside (my cellphone store) alone.

"In just two to three minutes, I couldn't find him any more. We looked for him everywhere around, but failed to find him," said Mrs. Zhang, the baby's mother.
According to Zhang, she and her husband run a cellphone store near their home, and the baby was playing outside the store alone before wandering away.

Why would anyone leave a 1 year old to play alone outside unsupervised, this could have ended so much worse
Annemarie, I agree with you, but they used to do this all the time in Okinawa, too. I was amazed then. Maybe a cultural thing? I think it's nuts.
