8 year oldTiava Banner — who said she was not the mother of the baby — sent out an appeal on social media looking for any information on the whereabouts of the child, reportsThe Sun.
He was lost in his blue stroller when the rampaging truck sent hundreds fleeing in panic as they watched Bastille Day fireworks.
At least 84 people are dead, 10 of those being children, after Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel zigzagged through the crowd, indiscriminately killing dozens.
The post was shared at least 22,000 times until it was updated with: “Found! Thank you Facebook and all those who helped us.”
A member of the family said: “A young woman found him and took him home with her. She then went online and found the photo of the baby on Facebook.”
The woman then contacted the baby’s parents.
Her original post read: “We have lost BB 8 months. Nice friends if you’ve seen him if you were there if you have collected please contact me!!!!!”
Dozens of other people have appealed through social media to find missing loved ones.
“We are worried to death”, “We haven’t heard from him since he went to see the fireworks”, were some of the messages.
Many of the missing were children and teenagers.
