A DoorDash driver is being credited for rescuing a toddler walking around in nothing but a diaper and socks Sunday morning.
The driver, Robert Jackson III, was traveling along 8 Mile Road in Detroit, Michigan, around 11 a.m. when he spotted the child. He immediately stopped, wrapped him up in his coat and put him in his car to warm up, FOX 2 Detroit reported.
