Chaim Deutsch of the Flatbush Shomrim told VIN News that the joint Shomrim forces have put out a call for volunteers from all over to join in the massive search. Volunteers are asked to report to 61st Street, between 15th and 16th Avenues at 5 PM. Busloads of volunteers from many areas including the Catskills, Lakewood and Monsey are expected to join the search later today.
The boy's father left with police officers this afternoon for undisclosed reasons, and it's unclear where they were taking him.
“He normally took a bus down, you know, like every child, he wanted a little bit of independence, wanted to do a little bit of walking on his own,” said Brooklyn Assemblyman Dov Hikind. “So they had decided that they were going to — instead of walking all the way home, the mother was going to meet him just two blocks or so away from the day camp. The day camp is at 12th Avenue and 44th street, and the mother was meeting him at 13th Avenue, just one street over. Never arrived. Never showed up.”
Do we know if the child was alone on the footage they have? I am hoping that maybe he got lost or confused....surely he would approach a store owner or a police officer and ask for help. Bless his heart....I hope he is ok.
I feel I must over protected with 8 year old gs...I would never left him going anywhere with adult. I just don't understand a 8 years old is stil a child to me.
