The search began after a woman flagged down a Bexar County deputy around 8:15 a.m. and told them her son had run away from home following an argument, said deputies.

Deputies said the boy was last seen wearing green pajamas with dinosaurs on them, no shoes and no jacket. The boy is described as a Hispanic male with brown hair and brown eyes, standing approximately 4 feet tall and weighing 60 lbs.

With the cold temperatures and 11 year old Anthony Sosa reportedly leaving home with no coat or shoes, one would think that authorities would have to look in every house, outbuilding, shed, barn, abandoned car in the area. How far could he have gotten on foot?
