(Vanity) Child aloft in Larimer County, CO
My daughter via phone call | 10/15/2009 | (None)

Posted on 10/15/2009 12:04:42 PM PDT by NEMDF

She said she just heard on the radio that a 6 year old child had accidentally taken off in some kind of experimental aircraft in Larimer County, CO. Cannot find news article on this. Do you know anything?

It has now made a slow, soft landing. There is an ambulance on the scene.

Hopefully the kid’s hiding in the basement because he thinks he’s in BIG trouble for losing the balloon.

First it was thought to be a publicity stunt...now father and brother are reporting they can't find the boy.

I pray it was a stunt gone wrong, dad goes to jail, and boy is safe!

There was no televised coverage for about an hour so it sounds like a big ground search is on.

I’m thinking the kid is hiding trying to figure out how not to be beaten to death with a switch by his father.

Shepherd Smith is making jokes about the kid being under the bed when he may have fallen out.

Smith is an idiot!

They’re saying the family was a “wife Swap” family? hm.

I hope the kid’s safe somewhere.
