A missing six-year-old boy lived in a cramped shed with six of his siblings before his parents fled to India.
Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez, from Everman, Texas, US, was last spotted in November but wasn't reported missing until earlier this month after a concerned family member contacted police stating they hadn't seen the boy for months.
Everman police conducted a welfare check on March 20 at the family’s home after receiving a tip-off but mum-of-10 Cindy Rodriguez-Singh, 37, refused to answer questions.
