Kareem Granton, missing 11-year-old Brooklyn boy found safe on subway
An 11-year-old Brooklyn boy who was missing for four days has been found.
11-year-old Kareem Granton from Brooklyn, who was missing for four days, has been found safe.
Kareem Granton went missing last Wednesday and was found safe Monday morning at the Union Square subway station after a woman spotted him on the No. 4 uptown train.
According to CBS News, a woman notice the child and notified a police officer patrolling the platform with his dog.
The officer boarded the train and found Kareem dozing off in a seat. With the dog’s help, the officer was able to get the boy off the train.
After asking him a few questions, the officer discovered Kareem had been missing. He called in that the boy had been found, and Kareem’s family was notified.
Kareem disappeared last Wednesday after his mother, Precious Granton, said he visited a friend in their apartment building at 400 Williams Avenue in East New York.
His mother was grateful to be reunited with her son.
“I was happy. I wanted to be jumping like I won a million dollars,” Granton, who said she plans to punish the boy, told CBS 2′s John Slattery.
“I want to say thank you … for the lady that found him and called. Thank you so much.”
