A baby boy was found alive after being buried in a dog crate for roughly a day, authorities said yesterday.
The infant, Koah Sharp, was discovered in a towel-wrapped crate about 50 yards from his grandfather's home, with search parties involving nearly 100 officers eventually locating him after hearing his cries.
The infant's father, Michael Comer, remains in custody on burglary and domestic violence charges and is accused of taking the child without permission, while investigators continue to assess possible additional charges.
Search teams, responding to reports that the 11-month-old had vanished Monday, had scoured the wooded area before the breakthrough, and Sharp was taken to a hospital for treatment.
