A three-year-old girl was rescued from a street in southeastern Brazil after she was found wandering along crying for her 19-year-old mother, who left her home to go party.
Constructions workers were repairing a street Santo André, São Paulo during the earlier hours of Sunday when they spotted the child wearing only diapers and called the Military Police.
Surveillance video footage showed the barefoot girl reaching a corner at the intersection Peró Vaz Street when she stopped as a car sped by at 1:31 am.
She stood over a manhole cover for a couple of seconds and went to cross the street when she suddenly began to cry.
'I want my mommy,' she repeatedly said.
