Rodriguez said, aside from his diaper being full, the boy appeared to be in good health.
Miramar police said Monday that, even with the help of Miami-Dade police, they still haven’t located the boy’s parents or relatives. They claimed that nobody they spoke with recognizes the child.
Police estimated the boy is between 2 and 3 years old. WPLG reported that he remains in the care of the Department of Children and Families.
Anyone with information regarding the boy’s identity or his parents’ whereabouts should call the Miramar Police Department at 954-602-4000.
