Boston Police Asking Public If They Have Seen Missing Stuffed Animal

BOSTON (CBS) - Police are asking for the public's help in locating a missing stuffed dog that was left in a cab in September.

On September 10, 10-year-old Aiden Ocker and his family were in Boston courtesy the Make-A-Wish-Foundation to attend a Red Sox game.

Two days before going to the game, Ocker became sick and he was taken to Children's Hospital. The Ocker family believes that during the cab ride to the hospital, Aiden's sisters' stuffed dog named Rocco, was left behind.

Aiden and his family were flown back to his California home where he died two days later.

Now, the Ocker family is hoping someone knows where Rocco is and can reunite the toy with Aiden's sister.

If you have seen Rocco, please contact the Boston Police Department's Hackney Carriage Unit at (617) 343-4475, or the Boston Police Department's Office of Public Information at (617) 343-4520
