Late one night, five-year-old Mia called the police in a trembling voice: “Please… can you come? Someone’s under the bed.”
Her parents brushed it off as a child’s imagination, but when officers arrived, they quickly realized Mia’s fear was real. At first, nothing seemed unusual—just toys and dust under her bed. Then came a faint metallic scraping beneath the floorboards.
With tools from the garage, the officers pried up the floor and uncovered a hidden metal hatch leading to a tunnel. Soon, backup swarmed the neighborhood. Inside the tunnel, they found three escaped convicts who had been digging their way through the night, right under the houses.
Thanks to Mia’s courage, the men were captured and the tunnels sealed. That night, she finally drifted off to sleep—her instincts proven right, even when no one else believed her.
