‘I got ‘em!’: Bodycam video captures moment police discover 3 children lost in woods

- The rescue early Friday in Montgomery was captured in part on body camera video. In the video, a deputy is seen calling out to the children, who were accompanied by a volunteer who had found the trio.
Volunteer says “y’all wouldn’t let me in over there last night so I went around and searched all night” credit goes to that man for the effort he put forth. 👏
Dedicated ❤️
Exactly, that man need more credit in this case, I hope those kid didn't forget about his kindness either
@@thomasfoster2 No, they don't let civilians search at night, because of the dangers and then they would have to look for two people instead of one. You should think about going to the hundreds of anti cop and police hating channels if you want to bash the police. You will find lots of friends (thugs, criminals, and POS) there.
@@IcyBlueii They had the National Guard, police, volunteer dog trackers, and helicopters out here for 5 days looking for a lost boy. The idiots running the show, in their effeminate voices, told me and my buddies, who have been hunting the area all our lives, that we would have to go buy Patagonia clothing before we would be allowed to help. So ridiculous. Anyway, we didn't listen to them, split up into two groups, and headed out that same night we arrived at camp. Three of my buddies found him at daybreak and got their pictures in the paper. First rule, never stop locals from searching. Second rule, never believe that police are more capable than anyone else. Most of them are uneducated and out of shape.
Glad the kids are okay. No thanks to the police.
The volunteer who actually found them needed a little more coverage and praise.
Pretty sure the high fives from those precious children was all the praise he needed - his heart must be singing right now
I figure he could care less about the praise...that goes to God! Finding those kids unharmed is all the blessing needed! What a wonderful feeling just to be a part of that miracle!
Ikr the cop is happily accepting all the praise
I think they told him not to go out and search and he did anyways
I agree but I bet finding them is a reward that will warm him internally forever 🙏
Nothing gives a man more strength than hearing "You're really strong" from a child in need of saving.
isnt it facinating to what littel boys and girls grow :D
@@hmcredfed1836 huh ?? Wdym
@@itsmeabeer_orwoodie9019 It’s obvious what he means!
But I thought all cops were evil? R we sure these r real cops?
@@dont-touch-mepg1392 bastards not evil😊
I got lost as a child once, not in the woods it was in a big city and, this teenager found me crying behind a dumpster and he took my hand and said, I'm going to get you home buddy, it's alright. He spent 4 hours with me helping get me to a police station where they were able to figure out my mother's phone number and get me back to her. I don't remember his name or even why he decided to help me but, if not for him I don't know what would have happened to me. Thanks to people like him there are so many young lives saved.
This was nice to hear. Glad it worked out for you. Im wishing that person all the happiness in the world.
Teenagers are capable of such destruction and such selflessness. They really will be a public nuisance for shits and giggles and then fully lay down their lives for someone, no questions asked.
@@JoTheAnomaly just look at the neuroscience, the brain of teenagers is far from developed and can explain so many tendencies people tend to have and to as teenage.
Wow, the way I don't know this guy and wish him the best in life
I was put on the wrong bus as a kindergartner and at the last stop the bus driver kicked me off despite me telling her I was lost. Two teenagers found me and took me to their dad, who allowed me to use a phone. Thank goodness my grandpa had me memorize the house number a few days prior. It caused years of severe anxiety though.
That gentleman that searched all night is a hero. He’s the one that made that happen!
Indeed
I'm just glad that this volunteer was determined to search through the night and heard them all the way down at the creek.
Yes! He's also the one who asked for the jacket for the kids
It funny how they take all the credit the police doing his job the man that found then was just a God send
He didn't want any credit according to the news article: The man, who asked to not be identified, found the children around 9.30am about a mile from where officials believe they entered the forest, about 400 yards off a forest road in the area, in a dry creek bed. The do-gooder then called 911 and alerted authorities that he had found the children. The man told police that he preferred to remain anonymous as he want any public attention or praise for the good deed. Neighbors who know the man told officers that 'he's a quiet guy but always helpful.'
The volunteer found the children, not the policeman. Credit to the volunteer. God bless him.
Who said he didnt?
I love the ending of the story but how did they even get lost in the woods
God bless him, where was god when the kids got lost... imagine there terror... cased by a god allowing them to get lost...
I know, .. makes no sense. Here is where you say how god really works?
@@morbidmanmusic Well if God did not protect them, it was the three wise men Santa Claus maybe but someone protected them ...
@@morbidmanmusic If everything was perfect there would be no free will for us. I encourage you to give your life to Christ. God is very much alive. Bad things in life happen, sin is the reason. Look back in the book of genesis my friend.
I'm shocked at how composed and calm those children are. No panic at all, still in good spirits, encouraging each other, after a dark, wet, and cold night in a forest.
That first kid looked like he was thriving out there
I'm thinking the volunteer who found them probably restored or preserved their high spirits and the second man did a wonderful job of holding the atmosphere. Make them feel anything but in danger or in trouble
They knew they were saved, and their wee peanut brains hadn’t understood the gravity of the situation enough to freak out
@@BisexualPlagueDoctor that's probably true. Also these kids probably liked that adventure until it got really hard
@@teonatsios491 yes
4:08 The fact that he went out of his way to *not* say "stitched up" so he wouldn't freak out the kids is such a great thing. What a good dude.
Lol i just noticed 😂
Wow, nice catch.
Great catch!
Disaster averted!
This reminds me of an incident where I used to live. The lost boy, who was about 8, was a city kid who was lost all night in the woods. When the uniformed searchers found him, he didn't want to go with them because he had been taught not to go with strangers. One of the searchers told him they were going to take him to his mother. He replied, "How do I know you know my mother?" Street smarts all over the place. They got his mother on the radio who told him it was OK to go with the rescuers. No matter how scared he had to have been, he didn't forget what he was not supposed to do.
This child isn't going places
@@samanthamitchellprete5646
What a thing to say about an EIGHT YEAR OLD CHILD.
Can you TRY and put yourself in his shoes for just a moment or is he destined for failure cause he got lost in the woods.
I do not confront people on YT.
I make it a point not to but seriously Samantha what are you thinking?
@@missmissy_90 maybe it’s just me, but I thought they were joking because the child was refusing to move. So physically he ain’t going anywhere…
@@l-m6313
Aww
Never would have thought of that. That was very sweet of you to give me a reasonable explanation.
The commenter owed me no response. I went from zero to hundred reading.
Thanks again.
@@missmissy_90 lol
That guy who was searching all night, enough can't be said. If I was the parents I would feel a debt to him that could never be repaid.
Depends on how the mom looks...
Exactly!
He would become an extended family member if those were my children he found.
I don't have kids (yet) but I hope someone would do the same for mine
If I were their parents I would have been in those woods searching all night for my kids as well. Nothing or nobody could have stopped me.
Im a police officer and myself and my coworkers worked through the night once to find a 91 year old woman with dementia who had wandered away from her house and into the woods. It took us over 18 hours of searching, but we amazing found her alive and well after the sun started coming up. Was a long and hard night, but of course the strongest of us all was the wonderful lady who prevailed despite being scared, confused, cold and alone.
I don't know you but thank you for not giving up!
Thank you for not giving up Sir.
God bless you and those who searched for her
i mean 18 hours isnt enough to kill a person even if shes 91, unless it was a particular very cold night.
Meh. 91 years is a good run, why waste resources.
Did the local community officially recognise the searcher's efforts and achievements? I do hope so. The parents and children will never forget him.
@@AlphaF28 Legend
Looks like the volunteer found the children and kept them going until the got to emergency services. Good on him!
@April yea the local PD will always want to take the credit for things like this.. there's a channel that dives for wrecks and stuff like that, and you see the PD wanting to take credit for what he's done.
@April Volunteers don't care. We're just happy to do our part. No need for recognition.
@@nikolai3620 They may not need recognition but that doesn't mean they shouldn't get it.
@April You're making assumptions about a situation you know nothing about. those police could have been out all day searching. EVERYONE needs sleep. sleep deprivation + searching the woods at night is a terrible recipe for disaster. the other guy searching could have just been taking the next shift after his own rest. Plus its common for police departments to use volunteer hikers who know the terrain well to find missing persons. Your ignorant comment is what is shameful.
@@otherthan3509 I disagree. The last thing a true hero wants is to be regarded as hero.
This hero volunteer is a true trailblazer. Not only did he continued the search throughout the night, he found those babies, protected them, and led them to safety. I hope he gets the recognition he so rightfully deserves.
Yeah he thanked Jesus 🙏
Sometimes we entertain angels unaware. That man is like angel 😇
Repent to Jesus Christ!!!
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV
He deserves a reward plaque and celebration. It was so sweet the way the talked to them. They obviously like him.
@@robertschultz9806 that's discusting. Man why be ugly
Shows how truly innocent little kids are. Still making the best out of a bad situation. So glad these little ones made it back safe!
noob kids who dont use GPS... they can play games all day and know the fortnite map by heart, but cant use navigation. such noobs
@@SoyAntonioGamingskill issue lol
"i got you bud" got me teared up "wow you are really strong" made me smile, this is the beauty of police work
Not only did the volunteer continue to search and save them after being told no. He also encouraged the officer to give up his jacket and kept those kids in good spirits the whole way. That man is a true hero with a heart of gold.
He knew he'd find them.
Exactly, couldnt have said it better myself, man deserves a story done on him and some sort of reward, true salt of the earth.
Yea he is.
Why was he told no? How awful
How’d they get into the woods I wonder?
Damn, the way the volunteer guy is acting like it's just a fun adventure is so wholesome. Those kids are lucky to have his help
Coz that's how you behave with children. It keeps them calm
Strength of a man, the thing that feminists always complain about.
Just a good ole southern Pawpaw
So sweet
he knew how to handle the youngsters, mad respect to the man
probably a dad himself
I lost my grand daughter once in a JC Penny years ago, (I know not quite the same) but the feeling of absolute dread when you realize they are really missing is a feeling you can't describe. That was only 20 minutes.
I lost my little boy in a store once! He decided to hide under a clothing rack & it was in just a moment. Lucky a lady found him! ( HE THOUGHT IT WAS A GAME) but I will never forget the absolute TERROR! He about gave me a heart attack!
Its not the same and i wouldnt know AND i watch too many crime shows but I think I would panic more in a store! I trust nature more than humans sometimes 😢
20 minutes is an eternity.
20 minutes is long
@@katiewalsh4738 Yeah both are bad for different reasons. In nature a trip/slip can mean the end, but in a store, a person with bad intentions can also mean the end.......different scenario, but both very dangerous.
Years ago I was involved in something similar, unfortunately the outcome was not the same. I would have given ten years of my life to have found those two babies. They have been with the angels for three decades now and it still breaks my heart when I think of them.
What happened?
I hope the guilt you carry leaves your mind sometime. Goodluck
So sorry to hear that. Prayers for you.
@@orbitalpl1 Their parents were unpacking the car at the beach car park, they only took their eyes off them for seconds, the kids wandered off. That part of our coast is full of sand bars and mud flats, the tide can cut you off from land and you would not even know it. We searched for six days dawn till dusk, we even had hundreds of military helping with all the support they could bring including photo recee aircraft. It was an unusually warm summer that year it was exhausting, but we on kept searching. Finally had to admit that we were not going to find them alive. They were found drowned a week later, twenty miles down the coast. They were a boy and a girl five and six years old, The same age as my children, it was heart breaking.
@@bepolite6961 / that’s really tragic, especially for the parents to loose not one but two children at once. Do you know the results of an autopsy? Did they drown or they died and then water took them?
Those kids weren’t scared because that man was upbeat and made it all as fun and safe as he could to keep them calm. Well done to that man 🏆🥇❤️
They got lost in the woods. If these kids weren’t scared it’s either because it happened before.

“Moment Volunteer Finds 3 Children in the Woods” not that the police weren’t looking but that volunteer should get the credit.
Yes
Exactly
Agree!
THATS RIGHT but without hesitation WHO did He IMMEDIATELY give the credit to……..”AIN’T JESUS GOOD”, YES….HE IS.
Amen!!!!" "I got em" that just didn't sit right with me at all after that man searched all night and did the searching, ,it bothered me that the cop didn't even say thanks to the older man nor acknowledged him right away through the radio .thank man is an angel he gave all the credit to God , God bless him.
I love how they have been lost for so long and theyre soaking wet, but the first thing the kid says is 'wow, you're really strong!'
These are some good kids I'm glad theyre okay!
There is no greater feeling than doing right by a child in a bad situation. That was the most gratifying part of working in the emergency services for twenty years.
This guy? I PROMISE you that this was one of the best days of his life! It’s a great feeling.
Helping others makes you feel so good. I love helping others (and no I'm not in the emergency services)
My eyes are watering thinking about how dedicated, kind, and empathetic that man was going through the woods to find kids that aren't even his own. He's a true hero.
I sure hope someone gave him a nice dry sweatshirt and bought him breakfast!
stupid, instinct-driven mother ɑnimɑl...
@@s.b.c.1950 haha, right 😂👌
If that city has a rescue squad he gets my vote to be starting a new career!! Yes sir. Thank you. Cheeseburgers for the kiddies lobster and steak for the gentleman!! Thanks.
Give me a break you emotional disgrace.
Did that volunteer that brought them to the police offficer search all night ???? Wow!! Thats a real hero..he didn't even have a jacket or nothing
He had a sweater, which is like a jacket. The officer looked to be wearing a short sleeve, wow great heroism!
Thats what I got from this. The Volunteer found them and was bringing them out when they came across the officer
The volenter is the true hero here.
That poor little guy was having a tough time of it, I wish the terrain was a little better so the officer might have been able to carry him.
He wasn't going home to get his bed with kids out in the woods. God bless him...
The little girl is tough as nails...she was wearing barely anything whilst wet having spent the time on the forest but still leading the charge to safety and caring for her brother who she said was bleeding. Great story!
The Volunteer was an AZ Cardinal fan and forum friend. He died just recently and we miss him. He has a Daughter and Son in law (with 2 children) that are Missionaries in New Guinea; Please Lift this family up in Prayer. It was his (the volunteer's) final request to me in a PM. Thank you Jesus for letting me now a Godly man such as he was.
"You're really strong"
The kid is so cute and I know that made the guy feel better
And then when he said, "I'm trying my best" ah my heart just melted 💓
Hell he was on cloud nine after finding them but that was a sweet thing to say.
Seems more like the volunteer citizen who searched all night was the one who's actually discovered the kids.
That guy deserves the credit for being a hero.
God knows and that is all that matters!

Volunteer is the real hero here. Give him his due in the TITLE not just the Description of the video.
Totally agree. Give the credit to where it's due. All to often the real heroes are sidelined.
Give this man a cheeseburger
I think we all ready know who ate all the cheese burgers
he doesn't want it - i hope he's all good and nothing crazy goes with this...that's all.
The guy asked not to be mentioned or recognized for this. Relax
The volunteer who found those 3 babies is a hero. He was out there all night looking for them and then had to tell the officer to give the little one a jacket. He was so tender hearted. THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU LORD.
Amen 🙏🏻
Those SAR guys definitely don't get enough credit
I hope the parents were looking for them all night as well... if not, they are unfit parents and I question their dedication.
I agree. The volunteer is the real hero.
And at 1:19 it looks like he has 2 missing fingers or a hand injury. He's the hero in this, not the police. Remember everyone we can all make a difference.
My little brother was lost in the woods at the age of 2. He was found by a brave officer and his K9, "Cool Hand Luke." He was lost for about 6-8 hours. This was around 1985 or so. Our family was and is grateful to that brave officer!
I love that officer and volunteer!! God bless you all!!!! You do great work!!!
any nice white girls here? contact a nice white guy here.
The REAL hero is that older gentleman who was out there all night in the dark and already had found them and was bringing them back. KPRC SHOULD recognize him and let the family know about him. The cop or rescuers didn't even mention him to the other guy who said "good job" . This news crew got this story completely wrong
Kids were found that’s all that matters!
Everybody was out there searching. What matters is that they're safe.
@Jim Griggy - I believe the gentleman who found the children specifically asked that he not be identified, as he didn't want any credit or praise for his good deed. (That's not to say I think anyone else should be getting that credit if they didn't earn it).
@BAGELMENSK - I can only go by what I've seen said here in the comments, but apparently the search was 'called off' for the night, & pretty much everyone went home to sleep & were to resume the search in the morning. This volunteer (who found them) continued to search through the night.
Exactly
You are so right! But, God knows and the volunteer mention God so he was shining gods light and he will be rewarded. Makes me feel better hope u2. Hgd!🤗
Kids are incredible. They almost seemed like they were having a fun adventure and were just going ‘along for the drive’
I know right, crazy how rough they look yet they still seem happy
Sometimes not knowing the danger in is all it takes for an emergency to simply be an adventure.
And they were *together* and stayed together! Very strong sibling bond! And I am sure that this is not the first time that they have had an adventure!!! It looks like they went to look for a one. And got a drive in a police car and cheese burgers!!! The Best Childhood Adventure!!!
Kids man 😂
Amen
How did they end up in the middle of the woods on a roadway? Utter respect to the gentleman who searched, found and stayed with them. And of course to the Emergency services for the amazing work they did. The kids to be fair were in high spirits, despite being soaking wet and I imagine rather cold. So glad they were safe.
I would guess they were exploring the woods and got lost.
The wandered down a dry creek bed, realized they were lost and went back to the creek and stayed put all night because they were taught to stay together and stay put if lost. That’s where the rescuer found them.
@@johansmallberries9874 Oh I see, well I have to say they are brave kids. Especially seeing how calm they were. Amazing work by the man who found and stayed with them and the other rescuers.
@@johansmallberries9874It's an amazing tip that unfortunately many people don't remember when they find themselves in the same scenario. Good on the parents too for teaching their kids what to do when lost and stay calm.

The volunteer did a great job keeping the kids’ spirits high. They seem like a chill bunch but I’m sure his presence also calmed them
Yeah, good showing all around imho. Kids seem raised well. No moaning, complaining or panicking from any of them. Which is amazing, because I bet they're, tired, hungry and cold. They're just calm and aware. Same for the guy who found them, and the cop. Everyone is calm, but focussed and collected. You can see everyone is very relieved the kids are found in good health. But no one loses their mind over it by yelling or crying.
🥲😢
Thats why you have to let your kids explore their environment. They won't be lost in what they know.
What a great person, although he'd been searching all night he was so upbeat with the children. An amazing individual and rescue team. Well done, you truly deserve to be honoured. So glad that everything was fine. God bless you all 💗

@@beteeho I get that situations like this raise scrutiny upon parents, but things like this can happen even to watchful and responsible parents.

Finally, a story of lost children with a happy ending. You get kind of bitter seeing stories of death and sometimes worse, seeing this video is a breath of fresh air.
I relate to that 100%
Yes. And now if you watch it it not as professional as you would like or think. Ow you know why the ending is tragic no appropriate training. And yeah these guys (Police and volunteer) were scared also for that reason.
Amen brother! 🙏
Great job sir you are very good with kids, you kept them calm and it's people like you that we need doing these types of things, and I hope you got a award
The grand majority of children who go missing get back home, and most get back home relatively soon. I hope that makes you feel better; it did for me. :)
I love that one of the first things the volunteer says to the kids is “We going to get something to eat.” True hero and a very calming presence considering the circumstances.

those types of people are the best for searches like this!
police officers know nothing....they are a bunch of idiots..always giving directions that mean nothing! that volunteer is a hero !!
@@NoYouAreNotDreaming I bet he's been hunting kids in the woods for a long time. Guess he had too much of an audience to be evil. It's always good throw folks a curve now and them throws them off . Just how stupid are you.
@@lakota123max you are the idiot. The guy that found the kids was looking for a victim. But he had an audience.
Great job officers, and the man who found them may God bless you sir.
The volunteer who didn't give up deserves the credit .
Yes he does, and he gave the credit to Jesus, ain't Jesus good?
He didn't want credit.
The man, who asked to not be identified, found the children around 9.30am about a mile from where officials believe they entered the forest, about 400 yards off a forest road in the area, in a dry creek bed.
The do-gooder then called 911 and alerted authorities that he had found the children.
The man told police that he preferred to remain anonymous as he want any public attention or praise for the good deed.
Neighbors who know the man told officers that 'he's a quiet guy but always helpful.'
GOD BLESS THAT VOLUNTEER FOREVER AND ALWAYS, HE NEVER GAVE UP. HE'S THE MVP.
I know right! Thank god there’s good people
Omg...wow
This is what humanity is about
God bless you
You're really strong! So sweet. Proud of everyone involved.
“ ain’t Jesus good?” So glad this man ignored instructions and went there anyway!!!! May his reward be great!!!!
The man will likely be suspiciously questioned about his intentions and the reward will sadly go to the police officer if sad reality wins this one. The volunteer deserves all the praise and reward
Jesus has nothing to do with them kids and jesus is not real lol
@@3yearsago951 How do you know?
@arr sea That seems irrelevant.
@@aaronm.3581 how is Jesus real explain please????
This honestly shows Texans at their best. Man searched all night in his Astros hoodie, says “ain’t Jesus good?” and “you got cheeseburgers in your car?” Good on him
Rumor has it he found them in a trash can.
💗
Shows humans at they're best. Has nothing to do with Texans
what does being a texan, astros hoodie, talking about a religious deity and cheeseburgers have to do with a good and honest man volunteering and finding lost kids? lol
@@malkinmalone its funny because when we were really young we asked about where babies come from and my mom and dad told us that we were aliens and they found us in a trash can and had to cut our antenna and paint us a different color as we got older they told us the real truth im 34 and im still disappointed im not a real alien
Realizing that he'd found them all safe must be the best feeling in the world.
Yo that citizen/helper man is an utter embodiment of selflessness and loving
As a member of a search team I have a pretty good hunch of what went through his mind when he found those kids. That's what it's all about.
God bless you and everyone who does this kind of work.
😊
I appreciate your service big Man. What are the requirements to become a search and rescue member?
@@katherineuribe2952 Thank you !
@@hellacoldhustla3210 It heavily depends on your location and the required skills ( mountains, desert, snow etc. ) I suggest doing some research in your local geography. Typically being fit, quick on your feet, and being level headed and staying focussed under pressure are a good start
Why is the headline of this implying that the officer found the children when it was the volunteer citizen who found the children? This makes no sense
Blue lives matter? Idk.
Because we are about to make this a police state so we need as much positive media in favor of police as possible. Maybe. But the hero is mentioned in the comments so at least he got his due
@@BasedRoots I've seen mentioned a few times that he requested not to be mentioned or praised.
Try not to spread negativity, let's just focus on how amazing it is that these kids got found!
@@Hallowed_Ground One thing is him not wanting to be doxxed, another thing is blatantly lying on a news story like they are here.
@@BasedRoots It already is a police state. Lol. They have their place. What if we didn't have them? The important thing is the children here.
Because the volunteer was useless and didn't get them out of the forest. What's the point in finding someone if you don't rescue them?
1:54 There was also a hero's cape here.....well done officer 👨✈
What an wonderful policeman there! Wow, so patient and loving and caring, loved watching this video 💚
Best news I've heard all year. I can't imagine what a nightmare and relief that must have been for the parents and children. Those officers and civilians are true heroes.
@edie sheridan rescuing children from a life or death situation at risk of your own health is the epitome of heroism. Especially if they aren't even your own children. Being heroic is usually synonymous with being a decent person though. So yeah.
@@censoredforthetruth7475 it’s their job. It’s what they are paid to do!
@edie sheridan heroes
@@itismeIamher you are ungrateful
@@itismeIamher if those officers have ever written a ticket without asking the driver if they were acting in a commercial capacity then they are not a good officer. rescuing children is a great thing i agree. good people would all do the same, cops are just men and women same as the rest of us nothing magical about what someone wears. other then the fact good people do good things no matter what they wear.
Thank you volunteer searcher. You did a great thing finding those children.
Yes and amen
Yup they did God Bless Them Always 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@Evil PimpIk Thanks God they found them 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@Evil Pimp ? All he did was tell the kids to come to him. Not sure what you are triggered about.
@Evil Pimp I’m pretty sure he was just informing the other cops that he had located the volunteer with the kids. Although I did find it kinda strange that when they got out of the woods everyone’s shaking the cops hand and pretty much ignoring the volunteer dude
Pay attention to what the volunteer says at 1:08. Chilling. He may very well have saved those children's lives.
Thank you to all the volunteers, God bless you
The volunteer found the kids, not the officer. The headline should be changed!
Regardless, its awesome they were found safe and sound!❤
Criminals always take credit.
They really should fire a lot of these “journalists”
Yeah its not like the police help people everyday or anything.
But what doesn't matter who found them they found them God-bless them
Doesn’t surprise me. Radio’d in like he found them. Taking all the credit.
The little boy saying “we try our best”was so adorable I’m so glad they are safe
That was absolutely beautiful , it made me cry
@@MsStormygale me too 🥲
And they absolutely did their best! They’re still here and made it home safe and together 🥺
Beautiful outcome and wonderful with children. Built a papore with them immediately and they were saved. Thank God for this wonderful man and team. "You're strong". I love it.
Bless you officers! Bless you volunteers! Thanks be to God! Every child is priceless!
You can't begin to imagine the relief the parents must have felt ...
Right!?! They can actually breath again!! So glad they were found!
How long were they lost for?
@@nireneelloc5565 I'm not sure exactly but definitely over night .
@@juleerowley9706 😢💔 so scary. Glad they've been found!
I started to cry as they came out of the woods. I can't imagine what the parents felt when they held them again
I didn’t expect the kids to sound so cheerful. They must’ve felt safe with the volunteer who found them. Reminds me so much of that nostalgic song Angels Among Us.
They were probably having fun lol. I remember exploring the woods as a kid. All the adults thought I was afraid and lost, but I never felt that way
among us 📮
@@proton001 lol
One thing you learn in psychology is that kids are super resilient.
That’s what I was saying. This was a cakewalk for them, Lol.
So glad the children are found safe! God bless the man who found them and the others who helped in the search!
They made me smile , because they didn't lost their spirit. They are adorable and they loud it's a very sweet music to listen them so happy and style being kids. They so pure
These kids are so composed. What brave young kids. Still so polite. Complimenting. Grateful. Their parents have raised some strong children. These 3 are going to do great things!!!!
I agree!
Sounds like your fat emotions get to you
@@PootyTangGaming holy shieeet dats harsh
@@Pededededelm truth hurts huh
@@PootyTangGaming what does someone's weight have to do with a comment on a clip. What was your point. Because the point of the clip was the joy of finding these kids. I may be fat in your opinion but I'd rather be fat than so miserable with my life that I need to attempt to bring others down to sleep at night. I'll pray for you.
“Police discover 3 children” already discovered by the guy they tried to stop from looking
@@user-tu6ty2ui1u thank you
@@user-tu6ty2ui1u dead kids are more negative
@@user-tu6ty2ui1u if my children are missing and people want to volenteer to help by all means go ahead. I’d just want my children back. The more people searching the better the chances they are found right?
@@user-tu6ty2ui1u yup, yup! lets leave it to the trained guberment ficials! Yup, yup! It's ok if da trained guberment ficials find the bodies in a few days or weeks, as long as it was the trained guberment ficials and not some stupid individual that found dem! /sarc
What do you mean, they tried to stop him? I didn't get the full zgory?
This was before bodycams but when I was 6 or 7, I had a babysitter in Crescent City, CA (not a particularly good one btw) who took us all out on a hike in the woods. We had no buddy system; reflective clothing, any distinct line or path to follow, really nothing. She just kinda let us all roam around while she sat on a log and smoked pot. I was a rambunctious child who was always getting into trouble, so a friend and I just ran off in one direction away from them and went DEEP into the woods. We found a little pond to swim around in and throw mud at each other, completely forgetting or caring about the babysitter or the rest of the kids. Just played around for hours.
My Mom worked at Pelican Bay as a prison guard and was a VERY scary lady when she was provoked to be one (she was a great mother, nothing abusive) and I eventually see a SWARM of prison guards; CHP, search dogs, helicopter, etc. headed our direction. I got scared about what my Mom was going to do to me, so my friend and I ran and hid under a log. Just making the search process even harder. While we were there, we discovered a pair of pants with a wallet inside them. And it turned out to be a local teenage boy that went missing a few months back. They found us as we were digging through the pants and sure enough, my Mom was there to give me a spanking I would never forget. But one of the cops found the wallet and started breaking down in tears. It turned out to be that cops son. He called it in to search even more and they found more clues as to his whereabouts from there and were eventually able to trace his whereabouts to some town in Oregon. I don't know exactly why his pants were there or why he was in Oregon but my friend and I were given some weird commemorative metals for finding the clues to where the cops son was. All just because we were being dumb rebellious kids.
Bellissima e commovente storia la tua! Quando si è bambini non si ha il senso della responsabilità e delle proprie azioni, si vive tutto come se fosse una favola. Ma poi purtroppo si cresce e si diventa adulti.
this is so heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time, thank you so much for finding them. 😢❤
Cop didn’t do it, it was the other guy who came from the creek bed with them.
He did do it lmao 💀
Cops only look for people they can ticket.
@@phillipstracner7909 that has nothing to do with this operation like stfu💀
It's a team effort.
You look like that kind of person to say this
THE VOLUNTEER DISCOVERED THESE KIDS! Give the credit where it is due!
He didn't want any credit according to the news article: The man, who asked to not be identified, found the children around 9.30am about a mile from where officials believe they entered the forest, about 400 yards off a forest road in the area, in a dry creek bed. The do-gooder then called 911 and alerted authorities that he had found the children.

Yes. Bloody cop wanted the glory, blew off the true hero
I like how they did not scared them no questions just concentrated on getting them out.
bless the volunteer that saved those children's lives 💙
"Ain't Jesus good?"
"Let's go get something to eat!"
These are two men understand how that cheerful attitude could be extremely reassuring in this moment. Trait of good men. Absolute respect for both of them.
Considering countless people have gone missing and never found, or found dead id argue jesus is only good occasionally in the sense of lost individuals being successfully found alive and well. Either way, it doesnt look good for a supposedly omnipotent god.
I love ur profile picture!!
@@h91rex100 who cares, let people have a belief that makes them happy.
@@FatherPun i do. You talk as if i tracked this person down to harass them. They decided to make their beliefs public and comment so i responded. Why is this an issue?
@@h91rex100 it’s just sometimes good to be a good person. You couldn’t care less about these kids being found all because suffering has happened before in life. Your mentality cripples you. You basically said anything good that happens in life is constantly overshadowed by suffering. That’s just a sad outlook on life that I hope you can amend. God bless you and your family
