3-year-old boy dies in car crash on way to his own birthday party – rest in peace

A heartbreaking tragedy took place when a 3-year-old boy named Josiah Toleafoa was killed on the day he was supposed to celebrate his third birthday.

The sweet boy and his family were at the parking lot of Play City, an indoor venue for kids’ parties, when a car hit Josiah.

Witnesses of the tragedy said that his devastated mother screamed and cried hysterically as paramedics were trying to save his life. Unfortunately, Josiah didn’t make it. He died at the Rady Children’s Hospital.

This family’s lives turned upside down. What was supposed to be a day of joy turned into the worst experience of their lives. Their happiness was replaced with grief and sorrow and their world shattered into a million pieces.

Reportedly, the 36-year-old driver who killed Josiah and whose identity hasn’t been confirmed wasn’t under influence of drugs or alcohol. He stayed at the scene and cooperated with the authorities and reasons behind the loss of control haven’t been confirmed.

Members of the family started a GoFundMe to help Josiah’s mom and dad with the funeral expenses.

“JOSIAH brought the family together- his incredible SMILE, LOVING HEART simply brought JOY to any room. There was no time to see him do amazing things. I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD,” the boy’s aunt, Tatiana Toleafoa wrote.

“We’re doing this gofundme to help with my sweet nephew’s funeral expenses and services for the little angel that touched so many lives in so many different ways before he was called to Heaven. Any amount would help, anything at all. We are so thankful to have loving family and friends to be with us and love us through this horrible tragedy and want to be able to put him to rest to say goodbye and never forget the little boy who loved with a tremendous heart,” the page stated.

The owner of Play City donated $2,000 to the Josiah’s family and that the landlord matched his donation as well.

Currently, no arrests have been made.

We are so very sorry for this family’s heartbreak. There is no greater loss than that of losing a child.

Rest in peace, Josiah.

While dismantling the aged house, the workers stumbled upon a century-old chest hidden beneath the floorboards: They proceeded to unveil its contents

For many years, the house on the outskirts of town remained abandoned. After it was purchased, the new owner opted to repair the flooring and hired workers to tear it out. During the renovation, the crew unearthed an antique chest hidden beneath the first layer of the floor.

After some discussion, they chose to open it on camera to document the moment.

The chest was undoubtedly over a century old and likely wasn’t concealed by the previous occupants, as no renovations had been done to the property. They attempted to lift the chest with a winch and ropes, but it was far too heavy. The rusted lock had corroded so badly that they had to use a grinder to break it down. Eventually, they resorted to sawing off the hinges when the lid wouldn’t budge.

To their surprise, instead of finding junk, they uncovered neatly stacked silver ingots within. The owner was promptly called to the scene, and he, in turn, contacted an appraiser.

The treasure was valued at 15 million rubles, based solely on its weight. Given the historical significance of the ingots, the owner might expect an even higher price.

Discovering a silver hoard is a rare stroke of luck, and at the very least, the homeowner recouped his investment in the property.
