Young Boy Walks Off With Unknown Man, Neighbor Films It

She Warned Him

He was warned by his wife not to leave their son alone on the lawn. “You never know who lurks out there,” she told me. Despite her advice, he didn’t follow it.

Observing from his bedroom window, he watched the sanitation worker insert the yellow brick into his son’s pocket. After scooping the boy up, the man grinned and disappeared behind the fence.

He Had To Act Fast

It was impossible for Dave to get downstairs fast enough. The couple were already facing a number of problems, so he couldn’t bring any more on top of that.

But more importantly, this was his baby – the reason he got up in the morning. Trying to make it in time, he raced across the lawn. When he saw what was around the corner, his breath caught.

He had to help his little boy.

Dave And Malaya

Dave Palmer and his wife, Malaya, had their first child when they were thirty-two. This was supposed to be the beginning of a better life. Their dream house had just been built and they both had great jobs.

However, it seemed that their love life was deteriorating with each passing year. Even having a baby didn’t solve the problem. Within a short period of time, the two would be at their breaking point.

Moving

The incident occurred in Brookside Park, where the Kansas City natives had just moved in. Having lived in Kansas for so long, their last neighborhood offered some of the best security in the area.

They couldn’t deny, however, that their house was too small for their lifestyle. Moving into a larger home was the best move with their son on the way.

They had no idea what they were getting themselves into.

The Final Straw

A local tech company hired Dave to work as a software developer. Having just been elected head of technology, he mostly worked from home, as opposed to Malaya, a paralegal who commuted to the city daily.

They were supposed to be happy together. Since they had achieved so much and had so much going for them, everyone insisted that they should be happy. They were now a flicker of a flame instead of the roaring fire that had compelled them to tie the knot in the first place.

The incident would prove to be the final straw.
