The family members of a boy found unattended Sunday night came forward Monday afternoon. 

Officials were trying to determine the identity of the boy who was found wandering alone at Milwaukee's McGovern Park at around 8:35 p.m.

Officials say a determination will be made to turn over the child to relatives after the Milwaukee County Sheriffs Office's Criminal Investigation Division detectives complete their investigation.

The boy was turned over to Child Protective Services when he was found, but officials couln't find his relatives and there were no reports of missing children.

Officials believed the boy was around 3 years old, and he told them his name was "Treysiah Bauman."
