(AP) – Authorities say a Missouri man sought in the reported
abduction of his 7-year-old son has been arrested in Texas, where the boy was
found unharmed.
The Washington Missourian reports Brownsville, Texas, police took 32-year-old
Anthony D. Davis into custody Thursday morning after he tried to run from a
rental house on which authorities had converged.
The son, Seth Davis, was found inside the home watching television and turned
over to child-welfare officials.
Anthony Davis had been sought since he was to return the boy to his mother
Dec. 4 but never showed up.
Anthony Davis was jailed later Thursday in Texas on $15,000 cash bond related
to Missouri charges of parental kidnapping and non-support. Online court records
don’t show whether he has an attorney.
