A BABY from California has been missing since Thursday after his mom claimed he was kidnapped during an attack in a parking lot.

A frantic search for the baby was sparked with helicopters and K9 units also in attendance at the scene at a Big 5 parking lot just before 8pm on Thursday. With no sign of Emmanuel, the San Bernadino County Sheriff's Office issued a bleak update on Saturday stating: "The search for baby Emmanuel Haro continues; investigators cannot rule out foul play."

Frantic search for seven-month-old boy kidnapped during attack on mom outside store
A seven-month-old baby is missing after being kidnapped from his mother's truck as she tried to change his diaper outside a California sporting goods store. A frantic search is underway from Emmanuel Haro after he was wrenched from his mother Rebecca Haro, who was knocked unconscious during the attack. Haro was running an errand at a Big 5 retail store in Yucaipa on Thursday when she says a stranger suddenly attacked her from behind as she prepared to change her son's diaper, according to KTLA 5 News. When she regained consciousness with a black eye and no memory of what had happened, she quickly realized her infant son was nowhere to be found. The family is desperately pleading for help in bringing Emmanuel home, as search teams and tracking dogs have yet to uncover any trace of the missing infant. 'I'm begging you please, if you know anything, I'm begging you please bring him back,' Haro begged the public, as reported by CBS News. Haro had been watching her son and stepson at football practice when one of them needed a mouthguard, prompting her to leave the local stadium around 7pm to pick one up - and change Emmanuel's diaper. The mom says the last thing she remembers is someone greeting her in Spanish before she was knocked out in the parking lot. 'I was going to get the diaper and somebody said, "Hola,"' the mother told KTLA News. 'I don't remember anything since. I woke up here on the floor and I didn't see Emmanuel.' With a fresh black eye, the mother was overcome by a wave of crippling fear as she realized Emmanuel was missing. 'I checked all around my truck,' Rebecca told the outlet. 'And I ran into Big 5, and I asked the lady if she saw a baby or someone with a baby. She said no.' 'He's a happy boy,' she added. 'He was a healthy baby, he was crawling, he was kicking, he was playing with his toys. Whoever took our son, please give him back.' Officers with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Office arrived at the scene just before 8pm, where they brought along additional search tools, including K9 scent-tracking dogs to track either the child or a suspect down. 'Everybody came,' Rebecca told KTLA. 'The dogs, the helicopters.' Despite exhaustive search efforts, the family remains both confused and fearful, insisting they have no enemies and cannot understand who would want to harm them. 'Whoever took my son, please return him,' Emmanuel's father, Jake Haro, told the outlet. '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,' he added in tears. Rebecca echoed her husband's plea, adding: 'If you know anything, please come forward or take him to the cops. Please come and bring my son back. I'm begging you.' On Friday evening, friends and family gathered outside the sporting goods store to begin their own search efforts, armed with flyers they had prepared. Emmanuel is described as weighing approximately 21 pounds, standing about 24 inches tall, with brown hair, brown eyes, and a noticeable cross-eye. He was last seen wearing a black Nike onesie. Authorities have not released a suspect description, as the case remains under active investigation. Anyone with information about Emmanuel's whereabouts or details related to the case is urged to call 911 or contact the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Dispatch at 909-387-8313.

Missing Cape Town baby found safe, 37-year-old woman arrested
A newborn baby boy has been found safe days after he was reported missing. He was kidnapped on Saturday in a mall in Bellville. Police have arrested a 37-year-old woman for kidnapping. A 12-day-old baby boy who was kidnapped at a mall in Bellville was found safe at a house in Tafelsig, Mitchells Plain, on Monday. Western Cape police spokesperson Captain FC Van Wyk said meticulous investigation and an analytical approach to information at the police's disposal led the team to an address in Honolulu Street, where they found the child 'and, in the process, detained a 37-year-old female for kidnapping'. She is expected to appear in the Bellville Magistrate's Court. It was previously reported that the mother of the then 9-day-old baby was at the shopping complex in Bellville when she became nauseous. 'She left the child in the care of a woman who was with her when she went to the bathroom. Upon her return the mother could not locate the woman and her baby,' said Van Wyk. The baby's grandmother, Nabilah Saghar, confirmed that the baby was found and said he was with his parents. 'There are no words to describe the happiness and relief we all feel right now. It's been a tough past few days for the family, but we are so grateful for the police's hard work in finding our little boy,' said Saghar. The baby's mother, Imaan Sharmar, was unavailable at the time of publication.
