A teen who is developmentally disabled and nonverbal went missing while spending the day at a California park with his family. A search and rescue team had no luck finding him -- until one of them heard the sound of clinking rocks.
The teen, who is developmentally disabled, was spending the day at Crescenta Valley Park in Glendale with his mother and sister when he went missing at about 10 a.m. on April 3, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The park, just south of Angeles National Forest, includes some heavily forested areas.
During the search operation, a member of the LASD's Montrose Search and Rescue team heard the sound of clinking rocks and remembered the teenager's interest.
