Escondido Police

Police say the mom abducted her children, who have since been returned to their father.

Menifee police officers arrested a mother Sunday who they say abducted her kids and sent police on a car chase that ended as she crossed the U.S.—Mexico border the night before.

Police said a homeless woman snatched their 2-year-old son from his babysitter while she was buying him ice cream.

It was a terrifying moment for these parents at Grape Day Park. NBC 7’s Dave Summers has the story.

The Escondido Police Department is asking for the public to help locate Stanley Richard Stephens, 71, who has been missing since Aug. 10.
