Five year old sleeps under his bed while helicopters search for him

Categories: Just For Moms, Kids 5-7, That's Entertainment

A frantic Mama who called the police after her 5-year-old son failed to join the rest of the family to dinner is very relieved to be reunited with her boy. Five-year-old British boy Alex Olver had worried friends, neighbors, and the local police force who had all taken part in a frantic search for him as word spread that he was 'missing." 11 people searched his home, and a 2-hour helicopter search yielded no results. Until Alex was found in his own home.

Actually, the boy was found under his bed, sleeping. Reportedly, he is a "very small boy" and "very hard to see' when he is curled up. but still. Eleven people searched his room and not one of them saw him?

The commenters on the original article seem to think the family should pay back the police force for the wasted time (and helicopters.) I'm not so sure, I know how it feels to be a frantic Mama, but I do hope Alex's Mom tells him to sleep on top of the bed from now on.
