On November 10, 2026, 11-month-old Koah Sharpe was found alive after being buried in a dog crate for approximately 24 hours near Batesburg-Leesville, South Carolina. The child was discovered wrapped in a towel and crying while emergency responders were searching the area with assistance from local law enforcement including the FBI and ATF.
The search involved around 100 emergency responders who found Koah alive after hearing his cries as they started digging. His father, Michael Comer, 25, had taken the baby on Monday when he was reported missing by relatives. Comer was arrested for burglary and resisting arrest shortly before Koah's discovery.
Authorities did not issue an Amber Alert due to a lack of information about Comer’s vehicle. The infant is currently at the hospital with hopes that he will recover from this ordeal.
