CHANDLER, Ariz. (AP) - Police in Chandler say a 4-week-old baby has been found dead in his mother’s apartment after officers began investigating a possible abduction of the infant.

They say the child’s 19-year-old mother is considered as suspect.

The names of the mother and baby boy weren’t immediately released Wednesday afternoon.



Police say they received a 911 call from a woman who reported that an unknown person abducted her baby while at Brooks Crossing Park.

They say the baby later was found dead in the mother’s apartment a few miles south of the park.

Police didn’t immediately say how the infant may have died.
