Police say a man left a baby at a business in western Michigan before stealing a small self-propelled crane from another business nearby.

Muskegon police say the 32-year-old Fruitland Township man took the construction crane early Monday, reportedly knocking down power lines and driving through a fence.

Police say a 2-month-old girl was discovered at a nearby business. The child didn't appear to be harmed, but was taken to a hospital for evaluation along with the man.

Police say the man indicated that he was the baby's father. Child Protective Services is involved in the investigation.
