URGENT: [PHOTOS] [UPDATES BELOW] Dozens of Lakewood residents are reportedly headed to Boro Park today to join thousands in the now desperate search of a 9-year-old Brooklyn boy who went missing yesterday afternoon. The boy, Leiby Kletzky, was last seen at about 5:00 PM yesterday after leaving camp, but never returned home.
Hundreds from NY Shomrim, Hatzolah, Chaveirim and the NYPD have been searching through the night, and with the weather conditions, the search is becoming more desperate by the hour.
Members from Lakewood’s LCSW, First Aid members, Chaveirim and other residents will soon be on their way to NY, TLS has learned.
If you are available to assist, please proceed to the Shomrim Command Center on 15th Avenue and 57th Street in Boro Park.
NY Assemblyman Dov Hikind has put up a $5,000 reward for information leading to the return of the boy.
Please take a moment to Daven for the safe return of Yehudah Ben Ita Esther. TLS.
UPDATE 2:00 PM. The reward now stands at $45,000.
UPDATE 2:45 PM. The reward now stands at $100,000.
UPDATE 4:35 PM. The search is intensifying by the hour, but a sign of Leiby is yet to be seen.
UPDATE 6:40 PM. The latest photo was taken from CCTV showing Leiby yesterday at about 5:05 OM walking in the area of 44th Street and 14th Avenue.
See UPDATED CBS report below. (Please note: Video contains women not dressed according to Frum standards).
