A missing 7-year-old boy was found unharmed after searchers spent nearly a week combing dense forest on the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido, officials said Friday.
He was discovered in a small building at a military exercise ground about 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) from the spot where he was left alone at the roadside for a short time by his parents for being naughty.
He appeared to be in good condition for someone who had spent seven days without food, Dr. Yoshiyuki Sakai, the doctor who examined Yamato, told Asahi TV.
