PEORIA, AZ — Peoria police are searching for an 18-month-old baby who was taken by his non-custodial parent.
On Friday morning, Peoria police were called to the area of 89th and Peoria avenues for reports of a welfare call.
When officers arrived, they learned the non-custodial parent arrived at the location for a supervised visit with her toddler.
When the visitation ended, police say she took off with the child and another unidentified woman who was driving a white truck.
It's unknown in which direction the truck traveled after leaving the scene.
Police say the parent has no parental rights to the child as the child is a ward of the State of Arizona.
The non-custodial parent is 30-year-old Brittany Roberts. She is described as a Caucasian woman, about 5'6" tall, and weighs about 145 pounds with short brown hair and hazel eyes.
She was last seen wearing a dark-colored sweatshirt and dark-colored pants.
The child's name is Zachary Kaman-Moose. He's described as a Caucasian boy, about 26" tall, and weighs about 25 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.
Zachary was wearing a dark-colored sweatshirt, dark-colored sweatpants, and blue-colored shoes.
Officials said Tuesday morning that the child's biological father, 44-year-old Steven Moose, was also involved in this kidnapping.
Steven is a Caucasian man, approximately 6’2”,185 pounds, with short brown hair and blue eyes.
Anyone who knows where to find Brittany Roberts, Steven Moose, and Zachary Kaman-Moose or has information regarding this incident is encouraged to contact Detective Brian Stehli of the Peoria Police Department Special Victims Unit at 623-773-8713 or please call the Peoria Police Department at 623-773-8311.
