A wee one found wandering by himself in a Walmart parking lot early this morning has since been reunited with his family. "[T]he boy, between 2 and 3 years old, was found barefoot wearing a diaper and a white T-shirt. His family contacted police overnight," reports the CoCo Times. "Police said the tot was able to reach a door handle at his home -- located across the street from the lot -- and let himself outside." Aw, poor little fella. Could've really hurt himself. Also, who doesn't lock their doors these days? Especially at night. Sheesh.
Update: Pardon our snap judgement! It turns out that the door was locked. KTVU reports: "The mother and son had recently moved into the apartment, it’s an ADA (Americans With Disabilities Act) compliant apartment so the door handle is in a position relatively low on the door and the deadbolt was released just by depressing the handle...[t]he child was able to do that and get out.”
