A 4-year-old boy who was last seen Monday afternoon in Baltimore has been found safe and unharmed in Manassas, Virginia, police said.
An Amber Alert that had been issued for Diland Cruz-Hernandez was canceled shortly after 5 p.m.
The boy was found with his father, 36-year-old Adonis Cruz-Reyes, who is now in police custody, Baltimore police said. Cruz-Reyes is accused in the parental abduction that prompted the Amber Alert earlier Monday.
Around 1 p.m., Baltimore police said they were called to the 1200 block of Broening Highway for the report of an assault. When officers responded, a woman reported that she had been assaulted by her child’s father.
Cruz-Reyes is accused of stealing her phone during the assault, and then he allegedly left with their 4-year-old son, police said. He is also believed to be involved in a hit-and-run crash a short time later, at the intersection of Washington and Fleet streets, police said.
Baltimore police added that Cruz-Reyes is wanted for robbery, assault, violating a protective order and traffic charges related to the hit-and-run crash.
Below is a map of the area where the reported assault happened.
