    A five-year-old boy who took a missing toddler to safety after spotting him alone in the street has been commended by police for his quick-thinking actions.

    Diego Grabowski was playing on his scooter near to his home in Cottingley, Leeds, when he noticed the two-year-old boy wandering about on his own.

    The child had managed to get out of the back garden of his home further up the road while his mother was momentarily distracted seeing to her baby.

    Minutes later when she realised her son wasn't in the house, she immediately called police and the boy's father began a frantic search of the area.

    Meanwhile, Diego took the boy to the nearest adult, which was a man working in a garden nearby.

    They then came across the boy's father out looking for him and he was reunited.

    Diego was put forward for official recognition and was presented with a certificate and a VIP tour of Police Headquarters on Elland Road.
