🚨 Boy Found After Two-Day Search
A 7-year-old boy who had been missing for nearly two days was found late Monday in a wooded area, dehydrated and visibly shaken. Search teams rushed to the location after a neighbor reported faint cries, ending an intensive community-wide effort involving volunteers and emergency responders.
💔 Child’s Shocking Claim
According to police, the child revealed that it was his own father who drove him into the forest and left him there on purpose. Investigators believe the act was premeditated, as the boy recalled being told to “stay still and quiet” before his father abandoned him.
⚖️ Father in Custody
The father was arrested shortly after the boy was located. Authorities confirmed he is facing multiple charges, including child endangerment and attempted abandonment. Sources close to the family indicated recent custody disputes may have played a role, though the exact motive remains under investigation.
🌱 Community Outrage and Next Steps
The case has sparked outrage across the community, with many demanding stronger protections for children caught in family conflicts. For now, the boy is safe and under the care of child protective services, as officials work to ensure he receives both medical and emotional support for recovery.
