She ran to the pram with her mouth open in shock and then got the pram off the road, according to witnesses
‘She was shocked – I don’t know why she left her pram outside while she was in the shop, because by the looks of that pram, it looks like a newborn baby.
‘It’s not a toddler, it’s more than likely going to be a newborn baby. If I’d have stopped I would have given her a piece of my mind.
‘I was pretty angry over the fact she has left her baby outside a shop while she has gone in the shop.
‘I think she just needs to be a bit more safe. That baby could have rolled out into the road, someone could have crashed into the baby.’
The incident happened at about 3.50pm on Tuesday.
