Baby Albion DNA testing continues but no match so far

There have been no matches in DNA tests conducted as part of the Baby Albion investigation so far,say RCMP on P.E.I.

Baby Albion was the name given to the dead newborn found wrapped in a blanket outside a church in Mount Albionin April of 2015.

DNA testing has been done to try to find a match with the mother, or a close match with someone related to the mother, said RCMP Sgt. Leanne Butler.

"We have collected DNA samples from various people and everyone has been very cooperative," said Butler.

"We have taken [samples] from a number of people that have come in through the tips or during the course of the investigation and the samples are sent away when we get them."

Butler said RCMP are still waiting for the results on some samples.

Police still have not released the gender of the baby, or the cause of death.

Tips continue to come in, said Butler, and the investigation continues.
