 Poor kid. I remember thinking I lost my mom at a Bradlees store when I was a kid. 

Frankfort, Ind. (WLFI) - A two-year-old Guatemalan boy was left at the Frankfort Walmart with a note in his backpack.  Now, police search for clues to his identity. Martin was found at the Frankfort Walmart Friday in the fabric section.  Inside his backpack Frankfort police discovered clothes and a note written in Spanish.

 

"They're asking he be taken care of and she was no longer able to care for the child and she was leaving the area," said Frankfort police dectective Jeff Ward.

 

There are few other clues to his identity, but the note's author, believed to be his mother, said why she could no longer care for Martin.

 

"She's talking about her husband leaving her a few months ago," said Ward.

 

The Indiana baby safe haven law does allow parents to leave children less than 30 days old with an emergency medical provider like a hospital or fire department with no questions asked and no consequences.
