Horrific and yet joyful story–Fla. Girl, 8, Found Alive After Kidnapping:
Police Sgt. Mike Hall was scouring the landfill for the girl Sunday morning when he looked inside the trash bin and saw a yellow recycling container with a lid on it. When he opened the lid, he “saw a bunch of rocks, a foot and a hand,” Sgt. Dan Boland said.
Hall then yelled out to see if the child was alive, alerting other officers to the discovery. A police lieutenant saw the girl’s finger move and officers began pulling rocks off her, Boland said.
So wonderful that she was found alive but how absolutely chilling is the situation that ended with her buried in such a way. All I have to say is that The Amber Alert is a really good thing.
