One of the oldest homicides in Denver's cold case file is that of Baby John Doe, whose body was found in a ladies' lavatory at the F.W. Woolworth & Co. variety store in downtown Denver on Dec. 10, 1970.

The caucasian newborn, with hazel eyes and brown hair, weighed 7 pounds, according to police homicide records.  

The sprawling Woolworth's store was located at 820 16th St. at Champa Street. It was considered one of the retailer's largest - a place where one could go unnoticed.
