A nice bit of news for a change.
------------------------------
ALVARADO, Texas -- For three days, 2 ½-year-old Kevin Brown's chubby bare feet took him through acres of rugged North Texas pastures.
He probably slept and hid under thick bushes in some woods, frightened from a brief thunderstorm and the noise of rescue helicopters and searchers on foot, horseback and all-terrain vehicles.
When a helicopter pilot spotted Brown on Sunday night, he was nearly a mile from his home. Brown was lying on his stomach at the edge of a pond as if he had been drinking. The co-pilot jumped out, scooped him up and flew him to a hospital.
