The infant, Koah Sharpe, was found on Tuesday wrapped inside a dog crate that was in turn wrapped in a towel and buried just under the surface in the woods, according to the Lexington county sheriff’s department.
“By the grace of God, [the crate] probably provided enough air for him to survive our estimation of the last 24 hours under that dirt,” Koon told reporters Tuesday.
Late on Monday evening, Comer was found in an outbuilding at a house in Batesburg and was arrested on charges of burglary and resisting arrest.
“By the time the caregiver got there, Michael was gone and Koah was gone with him,” Koon said.
