Search for missing Rocky Ford child ends in tragedy

ROCKY FORD, Colo. (KKTV) – The body of a 3-year-old child who went missing over the weekend has been found.

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation announced the results of the search on Sunday.

After the 3-year-old went missing, the Rocky Ford community launched a search. CBI released the following information:

It is with great sadness that the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, along with the Rocky Ford Police Department, the Otero County Sheriff’s Office and the Otero County Coroner, can confirm that the discovery of a body in an irrigation canal earlier today is that of a 3-year-old boy, who was reported missing Saturday morning.

On Saturday, an endangered missing person alert was issued for 3-year-old Amari Galan. The young boy was reportedly last seen around 4 a.m. near the 900 block of Washington Street in Rocky Ford. Galan is allegedly a child with special needs, who left his home on foot with only a diaper.

Investigators from several agencies conducted a joint search that quickly focused on the Catlin Canal which runs directly behind the child’s home. Search and rescue personnel searching the canal banks on foot found a body several kilometers downstream in the canal at around 5pm this evening. Otero County Coroner Robert Fowler arrived on scene and a positive identification was confirmed with the boy’s family. Law enforcement would like to share their condolences with the family of Amari Galan.
