LOCATION: Nakomis Ave. and Seminole Blvd. Salisbury Wicomico County, Maryland
BRIEF RESUME:
On 08-19-2010 at approximately 0953 hours, Troopers from the Salisbury Barrack were patrolling the area of Nakomis Ave, and Seminole Blvd. in Salisbury, when they were flagged down by a concerned citizen regarding a lost child that was found wandering the streets. The child is an African American and he is approximately two years of age. Attempts to locate his residence and guardian were unsuccessful.
The Department of Social Services was contacted and the child was turned over to their custody.
The State Police is asking for assistance from the public in identifying this child and his guardians. An attached picture of him is included. Please contact the Salisbury Barrack with any information.
What's amazing is that the parents haven't reported the child missing. Probably crackheads.
ReplyDeleteOMG... That child must be so scared. I hope the parents dont get him back, anyone is better than that..
ReplyDeleteHow much you want to bet the parents are gone and havent been found yet.
ReplyDeleteTerrible, just terrible! Sadly if the parents come forward or are found, they or there family will regain custody of this sweet child.
ReplyDeleteLOCK UP THE PARENT.
ReplyDeleteLooking at this picture just breaks my heart. There is no sparkle in his eyes. He looks scared and confused.
ReplyDeleteChances are he was left with a young sibling (8-9 yrs old) while both parents work or do whatever and no one will come forward until they get off from work or come home.
ReplyDeleteThank God he wasnt run over,or kidnapped or worse before the police found him.An angel was on his shoulder.Sadly the courts will probably turn him back over to the very ones who were supposed to be caring for him before he is taken permanently and by then he will be scarred by it all.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I'm skeptical (good chance the parents are crackheads) lets not rush to judgement. The parent might be laid out on the floor from a medical emergency (stroke) for all we know. But I will say that at 2, the kid should have been taught how to point out his own house and recite his address.
ReplyDeleteNakomis Ave and Seminole Bvld. AKA "The Reservation" has always been a bad neighborhood. I agree with 1:23 that the parents are at work and can't afford daycare but there are so many agencies that would help pay for it. Not excusable.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure who the guardian of this little boy left him with, but I know that he does not have older siblings... I just pray that the MSP uses the information that was provided to them and finds his guardians... He is such a happy and loving little boy... He is actually between 3 or 4...
ReplyDelete@2:05, this child has speech difficulties. He cannot recite his own address. And for that matter, not many 2 year olds can... Home addresses and phone numbers are taught around the age of 4 to 5.
ReplyDeleteSometimes bad things turn out to be blessings in disquise.
ReplyDeleteAnd we wonder why the kids today are aimless criminals. This poor guy is already on that road with parents that don't care.
ReplyDeleteThey probably never learned the differance.
ReplyDeleteIt's spelled Nokomis, not Nakomis
ReplyDeleteWe have alot of old school grand parents stepping up to the plate in bad situations because it is the right thing to do. What the hell else you going do? What are we going to do when all those old school grand parents are gone? Who will pick up the pieces and carry on then?
ReplyDeleteHome addresses and phone numbers are taught at whatever age the parents decide to teach them. My child knew both at age 2 1/2 because I took the initiative. Teaching children is a joint effort between families and teachers.
ReplyDeleteOMG that poor lil thing..What is this world becoming??????????
