Disabled 11-Year-Old Boy Drowns After Crawling Into Culvert


Story out of Hamilton, Ontario:

Police say a missing 11-year-old Hamilton, Ont. boy, whose body was found submerged in a culvert close to his home Sunday, drowned after likely crawling inside to hide.

Hamilton police acting Det.-Sgt. Dave Brady said Finnigan Danne, who suffered from a neuromuscular disorder and had limited mobility, wandered from his home around 10:15 a.m. Saturday.

“He left the home without his mother being aware,” Brady said during a news conference Monday.

“And how he ended up in the culvert, it would seem that he probably crawled in there as a young boy who likes to hide.”

An Amber Alert was called shortly after 3:00 p.m. Sunday and Danne’s body was located in the roadside drain near his home soon after.

An autopsy was conducted Monday and Brady said the cause of death was determined to be drowning. Cont. (Video)
