HT7. Viral Facebook Posts About Missing Child Are False: What You Need To Know

Facebook post recently went viral, claiming that a young boy, approximately two years old, was found wandering alone at night in either Hereford or King’s Lynn by a police officer named “Deputy Tyler Cooper.” The post included an image of a bruised child and urged users to “flood feeds” to help locate his family.
Shared across large community groups, the story sparked immediate concern, sympathy, and thousands of shares. However, authorities have now confirmed that the incident never happened.

West Mercia Police issued a public statement clarifying that there was no such report in Hereford and that no officer by the name “Tyler Cooper” serves on their force. Likewise, Norfolk Constabulary stated that the incident did not occur in King’s Lynn and noted that their force does not even use the rank of “deputy.”
These clarifications make it clear: the story circulating on Facebook is completely fabricated.
