In February 1957, police discovered the body of a young boy wrapped in a plaid blanket and placed in a large cardboard box just off Susquehanna Road in Philadelphia’s Fox Chase section.
With his identity unknown, the child was known as the “Boy in the Box.” The case has never been solved. Philadelphia Police are expected to release the boy’s identity today.
