A family lost their 8-month-old baby boy amid chaos during the Nice, France truck attack at Bastille Day celebrations on July 14.

“A young woman found him and took him home with her. She then went online and found the photo of the baby on Facebook,” a family member told AFP.

The woman then contacted the baby’s parents. 

President Obama condemned the attack on Thursday.

“On behalf of the American people, I condemn in the strongest terms what appears to be a horrific terrorist attack in Nice, France, which killed and wounded dozens of innocent civilians,” he said.

After the attack, President Hollande ordered that the nation’s state of emergency, which was soon to expire, be extended for three more months.
