Missing West Michigan woman and baby found in Texas

A woman and her baby from Wyoming, Michigan, who were missing for several days, were found safe and sound in Texas last weekend.

This story has a happy ending, but was quite an adventure for mother and child.

The woman and her young daughter were reported missing from their hometown in West Michigan on July 3, 2024.

For three days, her family and the local police were worried about her whereabouts.

Little did they know that the couple had traveled all the way to Texas!

On Saturday, July 6, U.S. border officials made a surprising discovery.

They found the missing woman barefoot with her baby on a ranch near a border checkpoint on Interstate 35 in South Texas.

The mother told authorities that she was on her way to South Padre Island, a popular beach destination, when her car ran out of gas.

After the woman and her baby were found, they were taken to a local hospital to make sure they were okay.

Fortunately, despite their unexpected journey, both were found safe and unharmed.

Webb County Sheriff Martin Cuellar praised border patrol agents for their quick response.

He also thanked his deputies for their help in reuniting the woman and baby with their family.

The sheriff urged everyone to remain alert and report any unusual activity they observe.

What a crazy story! I’m so glad the mother and her baby are OK.
