Boy once left behind missing since October

A 12-year-old boy whose parents locked him in the house on Oct 22 broke out and has been missing ever since, according to a news report. The boy, Luo Jinzhi, was left behind in Dianjiang county, Chongqing, when his parents migrated to work in the city. He joined them in April but refused to attend school, his father said. Fed up with the boy, the parents often said they would abandon him if he would not behave better.
