An Ontario family and police are expressing an overwhelming sense of gratitude and relief after a toddler was discovered wandering along a busy road in the middle of the night near Windsor, Ont.
Provincial police said that the toddler woke up in the middle of the night, climbed out of their crib and left the home through a door in the garage.
The Lakeshore detachment responded after two people reported they had found a toddler walking on County Road 22 in Lakeshore.
County Road 22 turns into the E. C. Row Expressway in Windsor which has a speed limit of 100 km/hour, but police say the section of the road the child was found on was a 60 km/hour zone. “There were several people who stopped to assist the child,” said Const.
