A Romanian woman was so keen to play bingo that she left her baby in the back of a taxi.
Cabbie Toader Versan thought someone had left a pet in his car when he heard a noise coming from the back.
Mr Versan, from Cluj, stopped and found it was a baby, reports Adevarul newspaper.
He called the police and, after searching for clues to the mother, he remembered taking a woman to a bingo club.
Mr Versan went back to the club, identified the woman and asked her if she had left anything in his car.
The woman reportedly replied: "My God, where's my baby?"
She told police she never intended to abandon her child but simply forgot it.
Child protection authorities say they will investigate.
