Los Angeles County sheriff's detectives Wednesday are continuing their search of an Antelope Valley landfill for the remains of a missing 3-week-old baby.

Deputies from the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department's Palmdale Station responded Tuesday to the 2300 block of Carolyn Drive in Palmdale regarding a report of a missing child. But the case quickly turned into a death investigation, and a search began for the "remains of the infant," sheriff's officials said.
