A teenage boy who was left abandoned by his parents on the side of a motorway at night was forced to walk a mile alone in the pitch black to find help.
The 17-year-old was left with no option but to walk down the M11 in Cambridgeshire along the darkest stretch of motorway at night until he found an emergency SOS phone and called the police for help, the Mirror reports.
The teen was taken into temporary police protection and Cambridgeshire Constabulary's Child Abuse Investigation and Safeguarding Unit (CAIU) is now investigating the incident.
