This missing child is GREEEAAT- Employees at Walmart in Strongsville got two calls after 10 p.m. Jan. 11 from someone who said there was a missing child in the store.

The employees were already a little suspicious: The caller claimed the child's name was Tony the Tiger.
He was later found in the cereal aisle.
