Thank God this little boy is safe.

Wait, somebody calls police to report the 5 YO is wandering the neighborhood, but doesn’t bring him inside to safety? Police then find the boy in front of a local Methodist church.

What’s wrong with people today?

Maybe it was a single man who was afraid he would somehow be suspected of kidnapping the child if he took him into his home for safety. That’s how our world is today.

The story is not very complete, is it? Perhaps he used a cell phone to call the police, and stayed with the child until they arrived. Who knows?

Because most folks are smart enough to not want to risk $10s of thousands in attorney's fees.

Perhaps the caller was afraid that he would have been in some kind of trouble if he had done so--as sometimes happens to Good Samaritans who stop to help accident victims.

Who knows? Maybe they were scared off by the thought that the kidnappers were close by.

Thank You God for hearing our prayers.
Praise You God. You are Mighty!

I look forward to seeing what you have
planned for this young man’s future.

In Jesus name!

I just hope the child was not abused in any way - being kidnapped is bad enough.

“Thank God this little boy is safe.”

Amen to that! Didn’t they cancel the Amber Alert yesterday? When I heard that, I was so afraid they’d received info that the child had been killed. I sat here, staring at the poor baby’s picture.....so sad.. To hear that he’s alive, after personally believing he was gone, gives the feeling of resurrection.

Now pray that the trauma of this horrible experience will fade rapidly and that he will be showered with love and care by those around him. And that ALL the monsters involved in his abduction receive true justice. The poor little guy must have been so terrified. :(

Seems to be a rash of these types of things.

[EDINVA]

Amen!

I honestly didn’t see this good an outome for the little fellow if stories tying his grandfather to Mexican drug lords were true. If the grandfather’s actions could put him in that severe jeopardy, I hope he is taken far from his family.

Did anyone see this little boy’s aunt being interviewed on TV? If she wasn’t a poster child for a meth-head, I don’t know who is. I’ve yet to see the mother...has anyone?

[greyfoxx39]

I ran searches three different times..the titles are completely different on the two articles...."Police focus on 3 in Vegas boy's abduction (KGO reporting he is found alive in L.V.!)" and "Abducted 6-year-old boy found alive in Las Vegas"...I searched on "kidnapped" and "abducted", but not "abduction".

Sorry for the duplication.

[GBA]

Amen!

[wideawake]

I doubt he was molested - the kidnapping looks like it was a business transaction.

Once the cost of the kidnapping outweighed its benefits, the kidnappers cut him loose and fled.

I hope his grandfather dies in prison.

I read recently the number of folks who come up utterly missing and never found again ever . . . incredible.

Which gets into the UFO thing according to many whistleblowers.

...middle-class neighborhood of tidy, modest-sized homes about 5 miles from the Las Vegas Strip...

Well, the northeast might be Obama's idea of "middle-class", but the place where they found the kid probably isn't much above a ghetto. It's not surprising nobody called the police.

[dusttoyou]

That’s Cali-Vegas, man.
