He told me he was trying to sell his stuffed animal to get money for food because he hadn’t eaten in several days,” Dunham told WLWT.Dunham bought the child some food from Subway and took him to the Franklin police Department.Police began investigating the boy’s situation and discovered he lived with his four brothers in a home full of garbage, cat urine, and liquor bottles.

It is a terribly sad story. But I've got to love that boy. How incredibly smart and decent of him. He took something that was his and tried to sell it as a legitimate means of meeting his needs. Wow. I mean, SEVEN. I hope he and his siblings get into a good home where they can thrive and grow. That kid has potential.
