DORAVILLE, GA — An infant has been found safe and his father is in custody following a domestic incident in Doraville.
Emily Heenan with the City of Doraville says police were called to a business along Buford Highway after a woman reported that the baby’s father took the child without her permission.
“When police made their approach, he fled out of concern for the child’s safety; police did not pursue him,” Heenan said.
Police say the search was for the teenage father accused of abducting his infant son. The baby, identified as 4-month-old Josiah Rincon, was found safe.
Authorities say 18-year-old Antonio Cordova was later tracked down and arrested. Investigators say Cordova has a history of family violence.
Cordova has been charged with kidnapping and battery.
