"Miracle in Rivercess: 3-Year-Old Found Alive After 21 Days Missing in the Wilderness"

Rivercess county, Liberia: Three-year-old Alvin, who went missing since March 6, 2025, had been discovered alive on Thursday, March 27, 21 days after he vanished in Logan Town, Rivercess County.

Alvin, went missing alongside with his 7-year-old niece, Blessing, was found when a lady name, Mamie Johnson heard faint cries while heading to her farm she immediately informed the Town Chief, Tompson Tompoe, who was working on his farm nearby. Upon hearing the cries, Chief Tompoe returned to Logan Town to mobilize a search party.

After hearing a sound similar to a cat’s cry,” Chief Tompoe explained to investigators. I called out, and a child appeared from the bush, stepping onto the road.”

However, Alvin’s could barely stand, and was weak to speak, his small frame appearing almost skeletal. Medical reports indicate that at the time of his rescue, Alvin weighed only 8.9 kilograms, a drastic weight loss given his age and the fact that he had been missing for over three weeks. Despite the severity of his condition, Alvin was still breathing, a testament to his resilience during the harrowing ordeal.

The child was immediately picked up by the assistant Town Chief and rushed to safety. Later in the afternoon, a large crowd gathered at the Yarpah Town Police Station to witness the young boy’s miraculous return.

Alvin and Blessing disappeared on March 6 while accompanying Alvin’s father on a farm trip. A massive manhunt was launched following their disappearance. Two days later, Blessings was found alive by a hunter near Sieh Town, roughly four hours away from where the children had gone missing.

Alvin was transported to River Cess District Hospital in Gbediah Town for urgent medical treatment. Doctors are closely monitoring his condition, though the long period of exposure and starvation have left him in a fragile state.

The discovery of Alvin has brought both relief and sorrow to the community, as residents grapple with the mystery of his survival under such extreme conditions. Logan Town has a history of unusual disappearances and deaths, and the recent events have deepened the sense of unease among locals.

Meanwhile Chief Tompoe and Mamie Johnson is under police interrogation in Yarpah Town as authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the children’s disappearance.
