1-year-old ‘miracle baby’ found alive near where brother found dead, sheriff says VINTON, La. (KPLC/Gray News) – A 1-year-old boy was found alive in a ditch, just a few miles from where his 4-year-old brother was found dead. The baby survived two days in a ditch off of Interstate 10 East and is doing well, Calcasieu Sheriff Stitch Guillory said at a news conference Tuesday afternoon. “We looked at this 1-year-old. He was our miracle baby because he was still alive,” Guillory said. “Unbelievable. This kid spent two days out in the weather on the side of the highway. Thank God that trucker saw him. When you look at the video, here he was, you know, crawling toward the highway.” The children’s mother, Aaliyah N. Jack, 25, was found in Mississippi and arrested on charges of failure to report a missing child. Her bond is set at $300,000. After the 4-year-old boy was found in the water behind the Louisiana Welcome Center in Vinton, Louisiana, on Monday, deputies put out a be on the lookout for information. A family member from Mississippi reached out and said she was concerned it may have been her family member. She also told authorities about the missing 1-year-old boy.
