Missing Yankee Fan found

The 13 year old boy that went missing from the Yankees game was found safe in Queens. No information on how he got there is available at this time, but we are relieved he was found safely.

1010 WINS) (NEW YORK) A 13-year-old boy from Stamford, Conn., who disappeared from a men’s room in Yankee Stadium, has been found in Queens, police said.

Hundreds of police and security guards searched for Majelique Lewis after he vanished during a trip to the bathroom during the seventh-inning stretch of a Yankees-Angels game, police said.

His mother immediately reported him missing to security, who notified police about an hour later, about 10:05 p.m. A search of the stadium, including parking lots, restricted areas and locked rooms, was fruitless, police said. Officers also searched nearby fast-food restaurants and train stations without results.

But police say the boy was located in front of a building in Jamaica, Queens early Sunday morning in good health. Police spokesman Bernard Gifford said he had no information on how the boy had left Yankee stadium in the Bronx undetected and traveled to Queens.

Every stadium exit is monitored by security cameras and Lewis’ mother did not spot him on hours of recorded images, police said. He attended the game with his 65-year-old mother, brother and two sisters, police said.

Lewis has no behavioral or mental problems and no history of running away, police said.

“He’s an average kid,” said Arthur Shannonhouse, who answered the phone at Lewis’ home and identified himself as the teenager’s father.

Between 10 and 15 children are reported missing at every Yankees game and are almost immediately located, police said.
