Moment Ohio cops rescue two naked, starving boys, locked in filthy room surrounded hundreds of flies

Two boys found locked in a filthy room surrounded by flies and a soiled mattress were found after a neighbor spotted one dangling out of a window, Ohio police say. 

Bodycam footage released by Toronto cops shows the moment one officer discovered the youngsters, aged just two and three, in the room on Friday. 

Police sergeant Derrick Piatt, who was first on the scene, told WTOV: ‘Deplorable conditions. It’s probably one of the worst houses I’ve even been in. Several hundred flies were inside.’

The boys’ mom, Marcisha Ortiz, 27, is said to have left her children at home unsupervised and without food when she headed to work at 5am. They had not eaten since Thanksgiving evening, police said.

Neighbors had alerted the authorities after seeing one boy dangling out of the second story window. He had been throwing clothes onto the street below, they said. 

The bodycam clips shows as one officer climbs a ladder to the room. As he reaches the window one of the two boys comes into sight. 

He is naked and appears malnourished while a second boy is seen in the fetal position in just a red t-shirt.

Pictures from inside the home show the filthy conditions they had been kept in. 

The door to the bedroom the boys were kept in was locked from the outside, meaning they were trapped in there. 

Handles were tied shut with extension cords.   

Ortiz has been arrested and faces charges of endangering the welfare of children and possession of drugs.

When asked by police about her actions Ortiz is said to have not replied. 

A police spokesman said: ‘She didn’t give us any reason. When asked why she just looked at us and stated she didn’t know.’

Sergeant Piatt added: ‘She was more worried about what was going to happen to the cats and spiders that she had as pets.’

He told WTRF: ‘When I first went inside the bedroom, I realized this was going to be bad. I immediately got sick to my stomach.’ 

The children are now in the custody of Child Protective Services.

Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97!

NewsColony JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97! Jane Fryer is pictured above with Jack Hearn. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute’ There is a startling moment in Jack Hearn’s extremely spick and span kitchen, when I’m standing between his trophy table and the wall and he’s telling me how he could finish me off with his huge, bearlike paws. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute.’ We have already had a lively discussion about whether he should, or should not, throw me over one of his surprisingly wide shoulders on to his beautifully vacuumed living room floor. ‘I could throw you, of course I could! But I won’t,’ he says.  ‘It’s not fair — you don’t know...
