Motorist spots toddler crawling across busy street all alone and the family had no idea the child had gone missing
Cory M Cannon, 41, was on his way to work on Saturday when he spotted a baby crossing a busy street in Lakewood, New Jersey
According to a woman who spoke to the Asbury Park Press, a baby who left his residence and crawled across a busy street apparently got out by "accident". A photo that showed the 10-month-old toddler crawling across Joe Parker Road in Lakewood has now gone viral and sparked outrage in the media. A motorist was driving to work on Saturday when he spotted the baby on the road and took the photo.
When an Asbury Park Press reporter asked a woman at the home where the baby lived about the incident, she simply said, "It was an accident." She then thanked the reporter for the opportunity to comment but did not open the door to him saying she was busy taking care of the toddler.
