At noon on August 21, talking to a reporter from Lao Dong Newspaper, Senior Lieutenant colonel Pham Duy Thinh, Head of Van Yen District Police (Yen Bai), said that after many search efforts, a 6-year-old boy lost in the deep forest was found.
"I just went directly to the scene, after the initial examination, the boy's health was stable. This is truly a miracle that the baby survived 5 days and 4 nights," Senior Lieutenant Colonel Pham Duy Thinh shared.
Previously, as Lao Dong Newspaper reported, on August 17, D.V.L (6 years old, from Khay Dao village, Lam Giang commune, Van Yen district) and a group of people went to the hill area behind the house to pick fruit.
After that, L went alone in another direction and got lost and disappeared.
Upon receiving the news, the authorities mobilized more than 100 people to participate in searching for the baby.
Local authorities and residents also drained a nearly 80 square meter pond next to the area where the child went missing to search.
Other functional forces divided into many search teams at deep holes, caves, and streams over the past several days.
