A heart-wrenching incident has left a family in Lockport reeling after the wheelchair of a disabled toddler was stolen from their porch. The child's mother, Roseanna Cruz Roman, took to social media to make a desperate appeal for public assistance in locating the only means for her son to travel.
In a heartfelt post on Facebook, Roman shared the emotional impact of the theft, stating, “This man came on my porch and stole our baby wheelchair. This wheelchair means the world to my son. It was made special for him! This is how he goes to appointments, events, walks - even sits in to watch TV.”
The wheelchair, which was specially designed for her son, is not just a mobility aid; it is an essential part of his daily life and independence. The family is devastated by the loss and is urging anyone with information about the theft to come forward.
Roman has even offered a reward for its safe return. She encourages anyone who may have seen something suspicious or has any leads to reach out to her directly on Facebook.
