In a stunning turn of events, a 1-year-old boy has been found alive and well in Louisiana after enduring two days of treacherous weather conditions along a roadside.

The remarkable discovery came on the heels of the tragic finding of his 4-year-old brother’s body and their mother’s arrest in Mississippi.

According to Calcasieu Parish Sheriff Gary “Stitch” Guillory, the baby was spotted crawling along the roadside by a truck driver on Tuesday, sparking a flurry of relief and gratitude.

Despite being exposed to the elements and suffering numerous bug bites, the young child appeared to be in good condition.

The ordeal began on Saturday, when the two brothers were last seen with their mother, Aaliyah Jack, 25, of Lake Charles.

Authorities launched an investigation after the 4-year-old’s body was found in a lake behind an Interstate 10 welcome center near the Texas state line on Monday.

Aaliyah Jack was taken into custody in Meridian, Mississippi, on Monday night, over 350 miles from where her children were found. She faces charges of failure to report a missing child and is awaiting extradition to Louisiana, where a judge has set her bond at $300,000.
