Authorities said that rescuers located a cold, hungry, and thirsty little boy who had been missing for two days near his Montana home.
Officials said Ryker Webb (4 years old) was otherwise in good health after his ordeal in far northwest Montana.
According to the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office, the boy was reported missing Friday afternoon at mile marker 18 on state Highway 56, south-of Troy and Bull Lake.
According to the sheriff’s office, search efforts with drones and helicopters were hindered by poor weather conditions over the weekend, which included rain, low visibility and low ceilings.
Ryker was located Sunday afternoon close to Pine Ridge Road and South Fork Bull River Road, Sanders County. This is approximately 2.4 miles from the spot where he disappeared, according to a sheriff’s dispatcher Monday.
According to the statement of the sheriff, the little boy was “in good spirits and appeared healthy, but hungry, thirsty and cold”.
