Cody Vandore's family last saw him playing in the backyard of their Cayuta Avenue home around 3:30 Tuesday afternoon.
Just under an hour later, his family called the police after they discovered him missing.
Cayuta Avenue was shut down on both sides and search teams went to work.
"Behind 496 Cayuta Ave is a creek. Concerned the youth may have gone in the creek. Dive team was called and started and officers also started looking," says Sgt. Mark Mitchell of Waverly Police.
Cayuta Creek runs behind the Vandore's home.
Police officers searched the home and the surrounding area.
Including Soprano's Italian Market down the street.
Employees there say Cody's mother came in, looking for him.
After a 2 and a half hour search, police found Cody's body in the creek behind the Waverly Sewage Treatment plant.
"Responding people there started CPR and the boy was rushed to the hospital by the Greater Valley Emergency Medical and he was taken to the hospital and officers at the hospital have confirmed that he has deceased," says Mitchell.
Police aren't releasing any more details right now.
They are still on the scene trying to figure out how Cody Vandore ended up in the creek.
Cayuta Avenue is still closed from Broad Ave to Ithaca Street.
We'll have the very latest coming up Thursday on Action News.
They dont list his age here, but on the news they said he was only 3 yrs old!:(

So sad=( I can't imagine leaving my toddlers outside to play alone, ugh I feel bad for them. I hope others can learn from this that it's not safe to leave small children unattended.
