A 1-year-old baby who survived two days in a ditch along the Louisiana highway was miraculously rescued last week by an eagle-eye trucker who spotted the child crawling toward the road.
“We looked at this 1-year-old as our miracle baby, because he was still alive,” said Calcasieu Parish Sheriff Stitch Guillory, calling the entire ordeal “unbelievable,” according to KPLC-TV. He added, “This kid spent two days out in the weather on the side of the highway. Thank God that trucker saw him. When you look at the video here, he was, you know, crawling toward the highway.”
