According to the alert issued by the CHP on behalf of the Huntington Park Police Department, Jaydan Avalos was taken by 18-year-old David Avalos. The relationship between the child and the suspect was unclear.
David Avalos was last seen in Huntington Park on Wednesday, a CHP flyer said, but a post by the Highway Patrol on X gave the last known location as Normandie Avenue and West 228th Street in West Carson.
During the search, authorities released descriptions of the suspect and victim as well as a car that was being sought.
"This AMBER Alert has been deactivated. The child has been located," the Highway Patrol said on social media shortly after 9 a.m. No other information was provided, including whether David Avalos was in custody.
Correction: A detail of the suspect's description was misreported in an earlier version of this article.
