A ditch along Louisiana's I-10 near where the child was found. KADN
Romans 12:2 “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Important Takeaways:
- A truck driver found a 1-year-old alive in a ditch off an interstate highway in Louisiana this week, a day after the boy’s 4-year-old brother was found dead near the same freeway in what investigators think was a case of abandonment around the time tropical storm conditions hit the area, authorities said.
- A Louisiana sheriff, who says he believes the 1-year-old spent two days along Interstate 10, including while Hurricane Beryl or its weaker iterations battered the western Gulf Coast region with rain and strong wind – is praising the truck driver for seeing the child and stopping to pick up him up Tuesday.
- “This kid spent two days out in the weather on the side of the highway. … Thank God that trucker (saw) him.”
- Truck driver Reginald Walton was driving on I-10 when he saw something “to the right, over in the … embankment” ‘Hey, that looks like a baby,’” Walton, of Texas, told KADN.
- “Sure enough, there was a little boy sitting down the embankment there. As I approached him, he smiled at me, and then he stood up and started crying and walked toward me,” Walton said.
- The boys’ mother, a Louisiana resident, has been arrested in Mississippi and faces murder and other charges, accused of abandoning the children in Louisiana, authorities said Thursday.
- Walton, meanwhile, told KADN he didn’t feel like he was a hero. “I just feel it was God’s will for me to be in the right place at the right time”
