This is reported by URA.RU with reference to the press center of the Search and Rescue Service of the Chelyabinsk Region.

The child’s relatives contacted the police on the evening of Friday, January 19, when the boy did not return home from school.

From 22:00 a large-scale search was launched with the participation of police and dog handlers.

“Around 4:00 a.m. on January 20, rescuers found the child: he was sleeping in the vestibule between the entrance and the attic of a 10-story building, with cardboard spread on the floor,” the PSS said.

Ministry of Internal Affairs officers are working with the boy.

They, in particular, are trying to find out the reasons that prompted him to run away from home.

Earlier, the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, Irina Volk, said that police officers in Izhevsk returned home an eight-year-old girl who had fallen asleep in a transport.
