The relatives told police that the boy’s mother had not been heard from for several days. She was not at home, and her phone was switched off.

The officers returned to the highway where they had found the child and began searching. Only a couple of hours later they noticed, in a deep ravine, an overturned car. The interior was crushed, and next to it, on the ground, lay a woman. It was the boy’s mother. She had not survived.

It turned out the accident had happened several days earlier. The car had plunged down, invisible from the road. The woman had died instantly, but the three-year-old boy had, in an incredible way, managed to crawl out of the wrecked vehicle and climb to the surface.

All this time, he had wandered nearby until he finally reached the road and was spotted by the police officer.

Only a miracle allowed the boy to escape the destroyed car and reach the road, where he was saved.
