A teenager, Ray, turned up at Berlin's City Hall on Sept. 5 claiming to have been living in the forest with his father for five years, the Daily Telegraph reported.

He speaks a little German and is fluent in English.

The boy says he and his father, Ryan, moved to the forest about five years ago after his mother, Doreen, died in a car crash.

He claims to remember little of his life before that time but has given police what he thinks is his date of birth.

Father and son were perpetually on the move, he said, sleeping in tents and dugouts and hunting and foraging for food.

He told police that his father had died after a fall in the woods and he had buried him in a shallow grave piled with stones, before walking north for two weeks to reach Berlin to seek help.(点击英国《每日邮报》查看原文)

少年与父住森林5年

       据英国《每日邮报》报道,一个名叫雷的少年9月5日突然现身柏林市政厅,声称自己跟父亲在森林居住长达5年。

       他只会说简单德语,但是却能操流利的英语。

       男孩称,母亲多琳5年前死于车祸,之后他便随父亲瑞恩搬进森林。

       他几乎不记得之前的事情了,他告诉警方的出生日期也是他认为的可能的日期。

       他和父亲不断在搬家,有时住在帐篷里,有时住在地洞,他们靠打猎为生。

       他告诉警方,父亲在森林中摔死,他便把父亲葬于壕沟,用石头覆盖。之后按父亲生前叮嘱,用指南针向北走了两星期到达柏林。
