Battle Creek police said they are continuing to investigate how some marijuana was placed in the diaper of a 1-year old girl.

Police said Monday they were called to a day-care center on Arbor Street at 9:09 a.m. Wednesday. An employee told officers when she changed the diaper she found a small baggie of marijuana.

Police are awaiting a lab test on the green leafy substance but believe its marijuana.

The worker said the child arrived with a clean diaper and believes it could have fallen into the diaper when the mother changed it that morning.

The case remains under investigation.
