WEST CHESTER, Ohio — When 6-year-old Joshua Al-Lateef Jr. went missing last week, more than 1,000 volunteers arrived ready to help officials with their search.
Now, days after crews found his body in a retention pond near his West Chester apartment complex, community members continue to come together to provide support for Joshua's family.
Several local businesses and residents are donating to Joshua’s family to help them after such a tragedy. One of those businesses is J Mel’s VIP Barber Lounge in West Chester. For the week of Thanksgiving, owner J Mel is donating 10% of his revenue to the family. He said he's spoken with the family and they are thankful for all the support.
