Father Of Baby Buried Alive In Custody

(AP) – The father of an 11-month-old boy who survived being buried alive in a dog crate for a day has been charged with attempted murder in South Carolina. Authorities say Koah Sharp was taken to a hospital on Tuesday, a day after he was reported missing in Lexington County. He was in a dog crate wrapped in a towel. The boy’s 25-year-old father, Michael Comer, now faces attempted murder and other charges. He’s been in custody since Monday night. The Lexington County sheriff said Koah survived because of cool temperatures and an air pocket created by the towel.
