Missing Autistic Boy Found In Pond

From the Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office

In the early morning hours of June 25, 2018, the search for Dalton Robertson came to a very sad end. Searchers located him in a small pond close to his home. Please respect the family’s privacy during this tragic time.

In a loss so great and sad it is a comfort to know that we live in a community that is so quick to spring into action to help search for a lost child. People from all over North Texas joined in on the search for Dalton and were ready to show back up in the morning. We cannot thank our community enough for the outpouring of volunteers, food, water and other services. We also wish to thank every law enforcement agency and fire department for all of their assistance. Today, we share a sense of sadness but the light of hope shines in Dalton Robertson, a little boy who brought an entire community together.
