John Will Thompson
SCOTTSBORO, AL - Jackson County authorities say a boy who was found this morning is now in a Chattanooga hospital to be checked for any injuries. Sheriff Dennis Miller said 23-month-old John Will Thompson appeared to be okay, but is at T.C. Thompson Children's Hospital as a precaution.
Thompson's mother contacted Scottsboro Police on Friday morning to report she had the child. Sheriff Miller said his office, along with Scottsboro Police, have interviewed the mother and another person. However, they have not filed any charges at this point.
Stevenson Police also helped in the investigation.
The child had been reported missing just before 10pm Thursday, after being taken from a medical facility in Scottsboro earlier in the day.
