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.
