2-year-old boy missing after falling into Davao River

A two-year-old boy has been reported missing after falling into Davao River in Barangay 5-A in Davao City on Tuesday morning.

According to the report of Super Radyo Davao’s Ricky Banggat, the boy's uncle said that the parents did not realize that the boy had gone out of the house near the river bank.

A search and rescue operation was launched, but it was temporarily halted at noon due to the river’s strong current.

The local disaster response unit is currently monitoring the area while searching for the boy. — Vince Angelo Ferreras/RSJ, GMA Integrated News
