Overflowing stream
The body of a three-year-old toddler was retrieved from a stream in Msholozi near White River, Mpumalanga.
It is suspected that the child followed his unaware mother when leaving home Tuesday morning.
Mbombela Municipal spokesperson Joseph Ngala says the mother noticed that the toddler is missing on her return.
A search party ensued.
Ngala has urged members of the public to be vigilant all the time.
“They found the child a few hundred meters away from the stream. We would like to appeal to communities to refrain from crossing rivers and streams during this time and also to appeal to adults to look after the young ones during this rainy season,” adds Ngala.
