Question

A kidnapped (被绑架的）3-year-old boy named Aiden helped police find him on Tuesday, 13th January, after answering his mom’s phone in her stolen (被偷走的) car!

Authorities (官方) say they found a 3-year-old boy who was sitting in a car stolen outside a Utah day care center on Tuesday after he answered his mother’s cellphone and honked the horn (喇叭) to draw their attention.

The boy’s mother, Elizabeth Barrios, left the car unlocked (未上锁的) and running on a snowy morning as she dropped off another child, a baby, at the day care center around 7 a.m. in Ogden, a town about 40 miles north of Salt Lake City, police said. When she walked out, she saw someone driving her car away with her 3-year-old son Aiden inside.

Police arrived and called her cellphone, which was in the car, hoping to reach the thief and negotiate (商定) the boy’s release (释放), Lt. Tim Scott said.

Instead, the boy answered the phone. He told his mother that a stranger had driven away with her car and was going through her purse. She told him to stay calm as the man took things from her purse and ran away.

When the man was gone, officers told him to honk the horn and followed the sound to the car. “He was scared (害怕), but it was a good thing at his age that he was able to get himself out of his child seat and honk the horn,” Scott said.

Police reunited (使重逢) the boy with his mother about 20 minutes after the car was stolen. Officers are searching for the suspect. “He left my son. That’s all that matters to me,” Elizabeth Barrios told reporters on Tuesday.

“He is a very smart child,” Scott said. “He did a great job.”
