Gabe Botello, who works for Villa Pizza, says he was in the middle of a delivery (递送) around 3 a.m. when he saw a very young girl alone in the cold.
“I had people’s food, so I ran to the door and I gave them their food,” Botello said. “I went back to look her, but I didn’t find her. So I got in my car and drove around for a minute. I didn’t find her so I started pulling into parking lots(停车场).” He finally saw the girl at a factory across the street. She was wearing nothing but a T-shirt, diaper(尿布), and socks. Botello put his clothes on her and called 911.
“I had some water in my car, so she was drinking some water. I was just rubbing her back, letting her know she was okay and she started falling asleep,” said Botello. “She was very tired and cold.”
Police were able to bring the 3-year-old back to her mother. The mother even didn’t know her daughter was missing and thought she was sleeping. It’s not clear how the toddler got out and for how long, but the police believe it was an accident.
Botello is just glad he was at the right place at the right time. “Sometimes you want to turn a blind eye but, you just never know who you’re saving,” said Botello. “ I’m just glad she made it home. I’m glad she’s okay.”
