Sometimes you just have to wonder why people are s
sorry if this is in the wrong place
When you drop your kids off at elementary school, you expect they'll stay there until you pick them up. That was not the case in Cabot. Now, a couple is speaking out, after their six-year-old son left school by himself and walked more than a mile in the pouring rain.
Adrian George is in kindergarten at Northside Elementary school in Cabot. His parents, Heather and Justin, don't even allow him to play in the front yard by himself. So you can imagine how upset they are knowing Adrian walked more than a mile by himself Monday in the pouring rain.
"The teacher didn't know he was gone. They thought he went to the office to look at some fish. They had no idea, no idea, that he was gone," said Heather George.
Because Adrian didn't want to sleep during naptime, he was sent to the office to look at the aquarium. However, he never made it to the office or the aquarium, and instead walked out the doors by himself.
"I come up, and someone was beating on door. It was a lady with realty company. I never saw her in my life and Adrian was standing next to her soaking wet," said Heather George.
Heather says getting hit by a car is only one problem. "There's sex offenders, they could have picked him up. He could have been kidnapped."
"I'm just glad he made it home safely," said Justin George. FOX16 did call Northside Elementary school to see if the superintendent would go on camera. We were told they had no comment.
