LINCOLN COUNTY, Miss. — A 4-year-old boy and his dog were rescued from a 23-foot hole in a rural yard several miles outside Brookhaven Monday night.
The child, identified by responders as Gabe Allbritton, was in the yard with his grandmother when he went missing, said Lincoln County Emergency Management Agency Director Clifford Galey.
The boy’s dog had been missing for two to three days, family members said, and no one knew where it had gone. They believe Gabe had heard his dog and turned to look for it and fell into the hole, which they said they did not know was there. Lincoln County Sheriff Steve Rushing said the call came into the office around 5 p.m. Monday.
