Fetus Blocks Sewer?

News8Austin: Blocked sewer shuts down campus streets

The area of 36th and San Pedro streets was invaded by city crews and emergency workers early Thursday afternoon.

Initially police responded to the call of a child stuck in a sewer line near The University of Texas campus. As crews continued to work the situation was changed to "an object stuck in the line."

By 4 p.m. crews learned that the item stuck in the sewer was approximately a 12-week old previable fetus. The investigators were unable to recover the fetus. They were hoping to examine it for forensic evidence.

But police do not suspect any foul play. They say it's common for a miscarried fetus to be lost in sewer lines because unknowing mothers can "pass" the fetus without knowing it.
