A toddler allegedly stolen by his father from a Massachusetts daycare on Thursday has been discovered safe in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
According to police, Nathan Dorosario entered the Canton daycare and took his 18-month-old son. According to police, he breached a restraining order granted only two days ago.
The hurried search began in Canton at 3:30 p.m. According to family members, Dorosario showed up at the daycare where the baby’s mother also works, forced his way inside, seized the infant, and fled.
According to Pawtucket police, the suspect’s vehicle was discovered after a license plate reader detected a hit. “A location was pinpointed and the alleged suspect and child were located safely by Patrol,” according to Pawtucket police.
Investigators soon tracked down the father’s automobile on Webster Street in Pawtucket. A swarm of patrol cars surrounded the area. Surveillance video shows him bringing a baby across a parking lot to an adult outreach center.
Krykette Kowalski saw the arrest. She noticed police officers on foot closing in on the father and heard the infant wail.
“I have seen a lot of cops out here surrounding a baby and a guy that was holding the baby,” according to Kowalski. “The cops asked the guy to put the baby down, he didn’t want to.”
“All they did was ask for the baby, and they were calm,” Kowalski recalled. “He put the baby down on the ground, the cops looked at the baby and then fire trucks came.”
The baby was taken to the hospital to be examined. Dorosario is being detained on a Massachusetts fugitive from justice accusation.
