11‑month‑old Koah Sharpe rescued after surviving being buried alive in a dog crate. The boy was underground for about 24 hours.  His father, Michael Comer, has been charged with attempted murder and more.

Koah was being cared for by his grandmother while the child’s mother ran errands. When she needed to go out, Comer babysat Koah, who disappeared. 

During the search,  deputies found freshly disturbed dirt about 50 yards into the woods near Comer’s grandfather’s home. As they dug, they heard Koah crying. The baby was found inside a towel‑wrapped wire dog crate buried about a foot under the soil.
