"I can't believe it," said one motorist, who spoke to AFP on Friday on condition of anonymity.

Martin Tomsick told City News Service that officers attempted to pull over a motorist around 12:45 a.m.

Late on a cold afternoon in March, a motorist in Belleville, Ill., came upon a young boy wandering down a busy street without shoes and wearing only a T-shirt and pajama bottoms.
