BATAVIA, N.Y. — We're following reports coming through on the scanner right now of a young child, approximately 4-years-old, who was found walking around in the middle of the street in downtown Batavia. Officers on scene report that the child is asking for his mother and father, neither of whom are reported to be in the area.

Update (Friday at 9:04 a.m.): The parents of the lost child have been identified and further investigation into the incident will be shared between Child Protective Services and Batavia city police, Lt. Eugene Jankowski said in an e-mail this morning. It is not known if charges will be placed at this time. No names have yet been released. The investigation is ongoing.

Okay. Everyone with kids please do a head count ! seriously I hope you do an update. There are alot of houses and kids on Holland. It makes it sound like an abandoned puppy. Once children are two they get sneaky !

How did this turn out? Did they find the parents? Yes, I agree, when children start to walk, they are quicker then you think. They can open the front door and walk out when your back is turned. I still remember the first time my son figured out he could open the front door.
