Police say the boy was found walking towards junction 7 of the M6
A young boy was found on the M6 after police responded to reports of a pedestrian on the motorway.
The Central Motorway Police Group (CMPG) said they found the child, who had allegedly illegally entered the UK, on Wednesday night.
West Midlands Police said his age has not been verified and it is understood he is from Iraq.
He was found walking on the central reservation towards junction 7 for Great Barr at about 22:00 GMT.
The boy was picked up by a patrol car and taken into emergency care for the night.
The matter has been passed to immigration, the force added.
In a tweet, CMPG said: “He was split up from his parents a few days ago, and doesn’t know which country they’re in.
“It’s impossible to imagine how scared someone would be, not knowing where they are, not knowing where their parents are, unable to speak the language.”
