Los Angeles police are asking for the public’s help to identify a child who was found alone in Union Station on July Fourth.
Officers with the LAPD’s Transit Services Division found the boy about 7 p.m. at the downtown L.A. hub, the department said.

He has brown eyes and dark braided hair. He was wearing a blue down jacket, white tank top shirt, beige pants and gray tennis shoes, the LAPD said.
