Pregnant woman found slain; unborn child taken from womb, police say
(CNN) -- Police are searching for someone who killed a woman in her Massachusetts apartment and cut an 8-month-old fetus from her body.
Officers found Darlene Haynes dead after neighbors complained about a stench coming from her Worcester apartment.
The 23-year-old was found in the closet of a bedroom, wrapped in bedding, according to authorities. She was last seen on Thursday, police said.
Haynes had been dead for several days, police said. During an autopsy, police learned that a fetus had been removed from the woman's body.
