Watch video: Unescorted toddler attempts to cross road in Saudi Arabia

Cairo: A viral video has shown an unaccompanied toddler attempting to cross a road purportedly in an area in Saudi Arabia.

The video taken from a nearby surveillance camera shows the tiny baby, who has apparently left the family’s house unwatched, crawls on the middle of the street, Saudi online newspaper Al Marsd reported.

Spotting him, a person leaves his car, heads to the baby and carries him back to the family’s house.

There was no immediate comment from authorities.

It is not clear yet where the incident happened. A date on the footage suggests the incident occurred on March 30 this year.
