Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph article dated February 8, 1963 reads, "Little Dannie Jacobsen is used to traveling down Ventura Blvd. in Woodland Hills. But he usually goes in a car. This morning he went by foot. And at 6 a.m., while his mother was sound asleep at home. A motorist seeing Dannie, 3, walking in the street between Fallbrook and Woodlake Aves. picked him up and took him to the West Valley police station. The motorist told officers, 'He wasn't moving as fast as the other traffic.' Dannie, wearing only a tee-shirt and white pants, was a guest at the station for nearly two hours before his mother, Mrs. Lynda Jacobsen, 25, 22932 Lenora Dr., discovered he was gone and phoned the police. She came to the station and picked him up."
