Rescue teams searching for 7-year-old who fell into canal

Oh how very sad and tragic. I am just sick about this. My heart goes out to this young boy's family. WHY can't these canals be fenced off to prevent such tragedies?

As tragic as this is suggesting we fence all canals is (do I dare say) stupid!
All that would do is put a climbing challenge up for every boy that feels the need to prove he can get over it, and impedes his rescue when he falls in the canal.
And the cost would be staggering--- rivers, creeks, canals, ditches and ponds?? Where does it end????
To the Browns I will be praying for them in this time of extreme sorrow.

I hope by some miracule he is found unharmed.

My prayers are with the family tonight... my heart aches for them.

Very sad story. I will pray for the family.

My first thoughts are of course with the family, and DN, I don't think it is in the best taste to show a 13 year old sibling - and her raw emotions - at a time like this. It seems unethical to use a child in that state.

May God be with them. What a tradgedy!

A parent's worst nightmare. Sending many thoughts and prayers to this family and to little Trejon.

I hope they find Trejon. Little Trejon please be strong!

My heart goes out to trejons family may the lord be by you side and bring him home to you were he belongs GOD BLESS YOU ALL

I'm sending my prayers to this family. My God be with you at this difficult time.
