A man sleeping on a bench saved a wandering boy

A 6-year-old boy was found wandering alone late at night near Northwest Seventh Avenue and 17th Street in Miami on April 8, after a man named Arnett Johnson spotted him and called police. Johnson lives on the streets and had been sleeping on a nearby bench since his release from prison. He looked for the boy's parent and found no one, which left him with one option. He stayed put and waited. "I'm looking around for a parent, but I looked, and I don't see nobody," Johnson told Local 10. He kept the boy company until officers arrived. "This was a good Samaritan that was sleeping in the streets, and he called us and gave us that information," Miami police Officer Mike Vega said. "Kudos to him. We don't know what would have happened if he would have remained on the streets." Johnson had a simpler explanation. "God sent me there."
