A two-year-old boy is safe after wandering off from his home in Eagle Ridge.

On March 18, in the early morning, Wood Buffalo RCMP were called to the area after reports of a missing boy.

Officers quickly searched the area, with help from one of the RCMP’s Police Dog Handlers, and were able to locate the child.

“Children may be anxious to get outside with all that is occurring right now, so please keep a close eye on them and secure your residences,” said Justin Robertson, with Wood Buffalo RCMP, in a release.

He was found in good health but cold.

EMS completed a routine check on his health and noted he didn’t suffer any injuries.
