Hospital denies sending Native fetus through mail


A hospital in Ontario, Canada, says the package a Native mother received in the mail is not the fetus of her miscarried baby.

Hospital administrator Ron Saddington says human tissue was sent to the mother on the North Caribou Lake First Nation. But Saddington wouldn't confirm whether the issue was from the mother's miscarriage.

The mother and her family are outraged over the incident. Ontario's health minister is promising an investigation.
