Boy, 2, Wanders Off From Sayreville Daycare
The toddler was wandering around the parking lot when he was found by a dad dropping off his child.

SAYREVILLE, NJ - Somehow, he figured out how to unlock a chain-locked door. That's how a Sayreville daycare center is saying a two-year-old boy was able to get outside and wander around their parking lot. The incident happened Tuesday at Little Wonder World Day Care, NJ.com reported.
A two-year-old boy managed to unlock a chain-locked door and get into the parking lot, daycare owner Lana Thaykivska said. He wandered around for about 10 minutes before he was found by a man, who brought him to the deli next door, from which he called police. That man was a father also dropping his child off at the daycare.
"We are always watching the children," Thaykivska told NJ.com. "This boy liked to run. It just happened. It can happen at any school or at a parent's, friend's or relative's house."
