Area police and the sheriff’s department aided in the search for a two-yearold boy who was reported missing from his home in Decatur last week.

After the child’s babysitter reported him missing a search continued for about40 minutes before he was discovered asleep under a pile of blankets and stuffed animals in his bedroom at Hidden Springs Apartments.

Gravette, Gentry and Sulphur Springs aided the Decatur department in the operation.
