Taking a shovel from the garage, they began digging… and after a few centimeters, they hit a metal cover. Underneath was a tunnel.

They called for backup. After two hours, it was discovered that beneath the house and neighboring lots there was a whole network of tunnels.

Three fugitives were hiding there — former prisoners who had been in hiding for months, preparing an escape abroad by digging right beneath the city.

Using special equipment, they worked at night trying to avoid making noise — but little Mia heard them anyway.

Thanks to the girl’s call, they were caught. Since then, Mia sleeps peacefully.
