Foul play a possibility in case of missing Yucaipa infant as authorities' search continues
Foul play cannot be ruled out in the disappearance of an infant from Yucaipa who was last seen in the parking lot of a sporting goods store there, the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said Saturday. The child, 7-month-old Emmanuel Haro, disappeared on Thursday after his mother, Rebecca Haro, said she was assaulted by an unknown man while changing her son's diaper, the department said. Haro said she was rendered unconscious. When she awoke, her son was gone, she told investigators. Deputies were not able to locate the baby in a search of the area. The department said that when investigators confronted Haro about inconsistencies in her initial statement, she "declined to continue with the interview." "At this point in the investigation, investigators are unable to rule out foul play in the disappearance of Emmanuel," said the department, which also interviewed the boy's father, Jake Haro. In an interview with KTLA on Friday, Rebecca Haro, who had a black eye, pleaded for the return of her son. She said that she had planned to go to the Big 5 Sporting Goods store Thursday evening to buy a mouth guard for her older son. 'If you know anything, please come forward or take him to the cops,' she said. 'Please come and bring my son back. I'm begging you.' The child was last seen wearing a black Nike onesie; he has brown hair, brown eyes and is cross-eyed, KTLA reported. 'Whoever took my son, please return him,' Jake Haro told KTLA. 'We just want him back. We won't do anything to you. Just give us our son. Keep him safe, don't hurt him, make sure you feed him and change him.'

Mother says her 7-month-old baby was kidnapped outside a California mall after she was attacked
Police are searching for a seven-month-old boy who was reportedly kidnapped in San Bernardino County, California. On Thursday, the boy's mother, Rebecca Haro, reported that she was attacked outside a business in Yucaipa. Officers responded to the call at approximately 7:47 p.m. and were told the woman's child was missing. The boy has been identified as Emmanuel Haro. The mother said her son was kidnapped after she was attacked. Police brought scent-tracking dogs to try to locate the child, but the dogs were unable to lead authorities to the missing boy. The mother told NBC LA Friday that she had just removed her son from his car seat at the plaza when she was hit from behind. She is from Cabazon, 90 miles east of Los Angeles, and was in Yucaipa for her older son's youth sports game. "I noticed a smell from my baby so I wanted to change him before going into the store," she told the broadcaster. "I took him out of the car seat and I laid him on the chair. I had his diapers here and someone said, 'Hola.' I couldn't turn and I don't remember nothing. I got up from the floor and didn't see my child. Someone took him from me." Police did not release details about the attack or any description of the attacker or attackers. As the search for the child continues, investigators said on Saturday they 'cannot rule out foul play.' Police interviewed Jake and Rebecca Haro, the boy's parents. 'During those interviews, Rebecca was confronted with inconsistencies in her initial statement and declined to continue with the interview,' the sheriff's office said in a Saturday update. Authorities said the search for the child continues. Emmanuel's parents are urging anyone with information to come forward. 'Whoever took my son, please return him,' Jake Haro told KTLA. 'We just want him back. We won't do anything to you. Just give us our son. Keep him safe, don't hurt him, make sure you feed him and change him.' 'If you know anything, please come forward or take him to the cops,' Rebecca told the outlet. 'Please come and bring my son back. I'm begging you.' Local law enforcement is also asking for the public's help to find the child. The infant was last seen wearing a Nike onesie, and weighs approximately 21 pounds. The boy stands about 24 inches tall and has brown hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information is asked to call 911 or the San Bernardino Sheriff's Dispatch at 909-387-8313.
