A Georgia police officer is being recognized in his city for rescuing a 3-year-old boy wandering alone by a busy road.
Stockbridge police officer Granville Barrett told WSB-TV he spotted the boy alone off of Rock Quarry Road around 11:30 a.m. Friday morning, and brought him to his cruiser to cool off. Barrett said 15 more minutes passed before a worker approached from the day care a quarter-mile away.
He said the boy apparently climbed a fence in the yard of the ABC Early Learning Academy and workers there realized he was missing when they did a head count. Stockbridge Police told WSB that nobody called 911. The boy’s mother said she’s upset no one notified her until after it was all over.
