Photograph article dated November 14, 1963 partially reads, "A 22-month-old Van Nuys boy who loves to go for walks sneaked out for a long one today. Michael Hyatt, clad in pink sleepers, wandered outside his home, 7351 Woodman Ave., before 8 a.m. while his mother was still asleep. He was picked up by police at 9 a.m. at Vesper St. and Woodman Ave., Pacoima - three miles from his home. His mother awoke about 9 a.m. and conducted a frantic half-hour search of the neighborhood with no results. She finally phoned Van Nuys police headquarters and was told her son was in the custody of juvenile authorities." Officer Mike McCowan tends Michael Hyatt.
