VANCOUVER, Wash. (AP) — A 4-year-old boy dressed in Spider Man pajamas had a Spidey adventure early Sunday in Vancouver.

He was spotted on the street at 3 in the morning with a blanket and flashlight.

Officers were unable to find his home, so they took him to a precinct station. They gave him hot chocolate and oranges and watched cartoons until his mother called about 7 a.m. to report him missing.

The boy had been staying with his grandmother and awoke after a nightmare and went looking for his mother.
