## Summary

An 11-month-old boy, Koah Sharp, was found alive after being buried in a dog crate near his father’s home in South Carolina. He was released from hospital the same day and is expected to make a full recovery; his father has been charged with attempted murder and other offences.

Investigators say the child went missing on Monday while his grandmother was away, prompting a search involving more than 100 responders. A patch of freshly disturbed earth led them to the crate, where they heard Koah crying; the sheriff said an air pocket may have helped him survive. Authorities say they have not established a motive, though relatives have raised concerns about the father’s mental health and possible jealousy.
