KINGSTON --
One of the officers who found Jude Leyton in a wooded area north of Kingston says it was a team effort to find the three-year-old boy.
The toddler went missing in South Frontenac around 11 a.m. on Sunday, March 28. He was found Wednesday afternoon near a beaver pond, following an extensive three-day search by Ontario Provincial Police and search and rescue volunteers.
The boy was ultimately found almost a kilometre away from the family cottage by a team of four OPP officers: Const. Greg Verney, Const. Peter Wrigglesworth, Const. Mike Ball, as well as Const. Scott McNames.
McNames says the group never lost hope they would bring the child home to his parents.
