TPD, Toledo Fire searching for missing nonverbal 3-year-old

Toledo Police and Fire are searching for a missing 3-year-old boy this afternoon and also are asking for the public's help in locating the missing toddler in south Toledo.
Braylen Noble, 3, was reported missing on Friday from the 3400 block of Gibraltar Heights Drive at the Hunters Ridge apartments. His mother called police to say the boy apparently fell out of a third-floor window and she couldn't find him, police said.

The child last was seen wearing a long-sleeved red and white Mickey Mouse shirt.

Toledo Police and Fire personnel have been searching for the boy since 12:25 p.m. Friday.

Braylen is nonverbal, police said. Toledo Police and Fire personnel are searching the areas of South Byrne Road and Airport Highway, and the area by the apartment complex in the 3400 block of Gibraltar Heights Drive.

Officers and detectives are now conducting door-to-door searches of the entire apartment complex, police said at 2:42 p.m.

Also assisting police and fire personnel with the search are Toledo Metroparks Officers. Teams are conducting an area search of surrounding buildings, dumpsters, under vehicles and more, police say.

Drones have been deployed to assist the search and Toledo Fire and Rescue Department's water rescue unit is also on Swan Creek to help search. K9 units are also being employed to help search.

Police say the child's mother has been taken to the Safety Building as a matter of protocol in such search situations.

This is the first I've heard this mentioned, wonder if that's where the garbage from the apartment complex eventually ends up??

We also learned yesterday the FBI was searching a trash storage location in Michigan.

I don't know. I honestly don't know what to think. I can see and hear why it is thought that is what is heard but honestly if someone had said to me it was someone in total anxiety and panic saying "I can't" instead of "I killed" I can hear that too... This entire case is just WEIRD. I feel horrible for this little boy but wth? I don't think things add up but perhaps if we knew all of the facts they do, hard to say since we don't know who lives there, was there, nor much more.

I can say I listened to this once before I knew what was thought to be heard and I did not catch it--it actually sounded like two very distraught people (although I allowed for that being faked) but after reading it was heard I can see where it sounds like "I killed"... I would think major enhanced FBI technology would know for sure??

Why was this even released? They have not released other quite very basic info.

I don't know what happened here nor by who but both what happened does not add up BUT the way it is being handled is really odd too. Maybe it is a strategy, darned if I know....

They ask to stop rumors and then release this where people think they are hearing "I killed"...? Which it does sound like... Oh that will keep talk down...

Strategy I guess. Not sure why else it would be released without it being requested. Unless it was requested?
 
I tend to agree. I do get we aren't there and don't know what the area is like to search but there is so much missing here to be sure of anything. I get LE doesn't have to tell us a single thing but one thing is for sure, that window is quite a ways up. One would think he would either be injured or for sure crying and upset.

Then add in varying stories, I have read and heard it was maybe 1/2 hour before someone realized he was missing and then I have read it was known immediately and he was looked for immediately. I have read he was in a long sleeved Mickey Mouse shirt, a short sleeved one and then a T-shirt... This I guess is our media today (almost expect it in every case any more) as well as passing one word to another and it becomes... Quite honestly it is I think because most media is pulling their info off remarks online... Or it could be changing stories by those involved or who were there, then add in media inaccuracy--hard to say...

They release the 911 call but they don't even say who lived there or was present for sure? However, come to think of it, maybe LE is not even sure... The statement that grandma was there came from mom. Prior to that it seemed to be just mom and son. Are there more?

I have read grandma and grandpa live there (no confirmation I know of whether maternal or paternal, I think we assume maternal but not sure that is true as it is the paternal ones people have met)... We know dad went off to jail or prison and to me, that makes me wonder if his folks did not step in to help "mom" out.... I don't even think we know whose apartment it was. In the 911 call it is stated that there is ONE bed in the apartment. That is not the number of beds I would expect for a grandma, grandpa, mom and son (and we don't even know if other children were present or lived there, bf or anyone else).

None of this is meant to throw shade at any certain person, it is more meant that they release the 911 call but as far as a real fact about the case itself, we don't know a single thing for sure basically, do we??? Strange.

The only thing I feel for sure is he has been missing for quite a number of days now since the day reported (if that is indeed the day he went missing), and I don't hold out much hope. Too young and missing too long.
 
TOLEDO, Ohio (WTVG) - Police have confirmed that the body of a child believed to be Braylen Noble has been found after a days-long search in Toledo. Details on where that body was found and what led police to the discovery have not yet been released but authorities had concentrated their search on the back portion of the Hunter’s Ridge Apartments on Byrne where Noble and his mother live. That search was then further concentrated on the pool on Wednesday afternoon.

“At this point, it’s turned from a missing person investigation to a death investigation," Lt. Kellie Lenhardt told 13abc. "And it’s still a very active investigation.”

Police had previously searched the pool area on Friday after Braylen was reported missing but returned on Wednesday after days of searching turned up no results.

...... In the pool? The SMALL, gated, apartment complex pool that they had already searched? Numerous times? By police, the FBI, a diver, and dogs? And had at least partially drained?
I don't care if that thing was filled with straight pond water and you couldn't see at all. He can't have possibly been there the entire time and been missed... Right????

There's no way they missed him, I don't believe it for one second! Someone put that poor baby's body there after it had been searched ( twice I think. )

Although I thought this would be the outcome I'm crying my eyes out.

RIP sweet boy. :angel:

Here is the apartment complex site, I think this link takes you to photos. The pool is fenced as one would expect. It looks like there is a dog park also fenced. It gives different views and sides of the building and the best I can see is he would have jumped or fallen into grass and still quite a ways down... It looks like one part of the play ground is fenced... More fencing in fact than you see in some. I noted no water source. One can see woods behind the pool or at least brush but other than that it looks pretty "city" like. If I get around to it maybe I will google map it too.

There are apartment lay outs as well but without knowing what side and how many bedrooms, etc., hard to say which lay out they had.

The pool that he would have been "missed" in.
This is the strangest case I've seen in.... a VERY long time.

The Lucas County Coroner’s Office has confirmed that the body of three-year-old Braylen Noble was found on Wednesday.

His cause of death has not been released. An autopsy is scheduled for Thursday.
 
Wow, I don't know what to think.

I was the one obsessed with the pool earlier before he was found, or at least as part of things that struck me odd. While I understood LE searching it, it seemed like a huge point was being made of it and it being searched more than once, using words like divers, dive team... The pictures of the pool show it is pretty standard apartment size and not Olympic sized... I doubt they missed him on the first searches...

So wth? Were they providing a place for the body to be placed that someone knew was already searched so to speak? Did they somehow know from questioning and perhaps cameras that perhaps someone still had this child or his body and needed to dispose of it but couldn't with all of the attention in the area?

When they mentioned finding a hole dug, with an LE officer stating it had not been there the day before, it was interesting but I really didn't give it much weight... The same with the bloody blanket, it piqued interest but when seemed to be tied to a homeless tent (possibly), it did not seem to relate...

Did they set up surveillance and someone was seen going near the pool and trying to look at it, etc. and not be noticed (like furtively looking around for a way to dispose of something)...? I just don't get it... LE had to have set this up as an already thoroughly searched spot and if so, it was brilliant... If they did not set it up, I don't get the entire pool fixation and now him found there AT ALL... Early on, a missing child, yeah, I get it would be searched but in no way did I think he fell out a window, got up unharmed and wandered into it, it is locked and fenced as one would think... I also thought it would be a dumb place in broad daylight for someone to try to get in the pool area and place him there...

Did they somehow know this child entered that building and never came out? Again by footage, surveillance, questioning...? Did they know someone still needed to dispose of him? Maybe an unwillingness to let their apartment be searched?

I don't have the link handy, sorry, but it is said someone saw the mom and I believe her brother alone in the woods the night before... It was a Twitter reporter I believe who had someone tell him this... It also seems now that the grandparents do not live in the apartment but have one of their own there as does mom's brother... Take that for what it is worth as this info seems to change... So lots of family live in the building....? The sighting in the woods though seems to be fact and had been relayed to LE it sounded like, prior...

It would seem like a typical case in tragically another child, another autistic child missing and found dead. Yet it seemed to be handled unusually, and it appears here the body was moved and/or had not been disposed of yet when 911 was called...?

One example is they let volunteers search anywhere, trample anywhere and then one day all of a sudden there is going to be an LE search of the woods and they wanted no one in there any longer... From that point on... If I recall it was to be an FBI planned search... Was this to pressure and panic someone who then perhaps moved his body...? Or knew to bury it there was out as they no longer had an excuse to be seen in the woods...? The release of the 911 call at such a stage is something we also rarely see...

Just all speculation and thoughts on this early morn after hearing what we sadly expected--that another child was found dead. The story to this one is going to be different I think with more than one involved most likely...

RIP sweet Braylen. :(
 
Out of everything out there, there is a FB Live video by NBC 24 I have tried to link here but haven't managed to successfully, that is probably the most interesting. A young man comes on it talking and it is difficult to hear him over the crowd noise but this is where it is said the mother was seen alone with her bro in the woods, he says the mom was defending a certain area or areas, he says the baby was being moved and more... It SOUNDS like he was seeing certain things at night if I caught it correctly and other oddities in behavior... He claims he is the reason they were there and looking in that area or something like that... Something about the baby being close because of mom's behavior or something like that...

He also goes into what is thought to be heard on the 911 call but it is the other remarks around that I am trying to catch... Something about grandma...

It is MSM, if anyone can link it, that would be great and if anyone can take a listen and see what they can hear in it...

The other key thing is LE makes it quite clear and obvious in their statement how well this was searched prior and by how many and the hint is imo they are basically saying this child was not in this pool prior... My opinion of that strong and clear focused point she made...
 
Well, this tells nothing although it may rule out a fall, one would think there would be obvious bruising, etc. if he fell from a window? And drowning not ruled out? No one is going to convince me he drowned in that pool. Maybe in a bathtub...

I think a fall or even a jump from a window would show something. On the other hand, a child can have a very huge head injury or fracture with no outward sign so I still think the window fall story may have been to cover whatever the concern was by whomever did whatever...

The other thing is this entire pool thing and drowning... Again, was drowning or water necessary to cover something that really happened...?

Not accusing anyone in particular as it seems anyhow that there are a few people involved here or who could be/or not be. Just speculation.

I do remember the mom being upset they were not going down the road and checking like other apartment buildings, pools, etc. She also made a remark that they were busy questioning her when someone apparently saw him at the playground... (Per Truecrime Society info)...

I also wonder if there were any marks, say marks around the neck just as an example, if this quickly they can just not say it was the cause of death... So perhaps there is no obvious cause but maybe there are things not shared, they just can't be sure they caused the actual death... YET.

It just seems the window fall is/was necessary for some reason and it could simply be because of cameras known to be elsewhere or someone believing he was in his room when he was not or to cover some injury... And then it seems this child was moved or had not yet been taken out of the building...

Just thoughts. This one is very going to be very different or so it appears.

And yet, another innocent lost his life regardless of how or why or who. Poor baby.
