In what Lexington County authorities are calling a miracle, an 11-month-old boy named Koah Sharpe was rescued alive after being buried underground inside a dog crate in rural South Carolina. Sheriff Bryan Koon confirmed that the infant, wrapped tightly in a towel, survived beneath the dirt for an estimated 24 hours thanks to small air pockets inside the container before search teams located him roughly 50 yards from his grandfather’s woodland home. The child’s father has been taken into custody and formally charged with attempted murder as investigators piece together the motive behind the chilling crime.
