SEARCH FOR MISSING BOY ENDS IN SUCCESS

  McNames and his team, made up of Consts. Greg Verney, Mike Ball and Peter Wrigglesworth, ran over to what turned out to be three-year-old Jude Walter Leyton, who had been missing in South Frontenac for about three and a half days.

“The little guy lifted his head and kind of looked at us,” McNames said. “We said, ‘Listen, buddy, we’re the police, we’re here to help you, don’t be scared.’ And we made sure he was warmed up, we gave him some water … then got him out of there.”

McNames said his heart was pounding.

“You have no idea,” McNames said. “I’ll be honest, the longer (a search) goes, the less likelihood of a positive outcome. So when it did happen … again, there were a lot words you’re not going to print … we were pretty excited.”
