ALLENDALE TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Deputies successfully reunited a child with his parents after the child was found wandering around an Allendale Township apartment complex in the middle of the night.
The Ottawa County Sheriff's Office responded to Mystic Woods on Pierce Street just before 2 a.m. Saturday.
People who live in the complex had called police after finding a three or four year old boy in his pajamas wandering around the complex during a strong storm with heavy rains.
The child has autism and is nonverbal, so he was not able to tell deputies where he came from.
They searched the area without any success, so the sheriff's office called in its canine unit.
K-9 Goos was able to find the child's family after a short track led them to West Wind Place Apartments, which is on the other side of Pierce Street.
The sheriff's office says the child was reunited with his family safely and without any injuries.
