Safe End
For the second time this week an Amber Alert has concluded with the safe recovery of a child.
On Thursday afternoon, a 10-month-old baby was allegedly abducted by her father, Daniel James David (pictured above), after an apparent domestic dispute with the baby’s mother.
The Alert was called off just after 7:30pm after the baby was safely turned over to police by her grandfather.
“As far as the status of the child, the child is fine,” confirms Det. Sgt. Greg McLane. “The child has not been injured. I believe it was as a result of the Amber Alert that brought this to a successful conclusion, and that's what they're all about.”
According to police a fight broke out between the suspect and the girl’s mother at the Lido Motel at 4674 Kingston Road.
The girl's mother was allegedly assaulted and the suspect drove off with the baby. He would later return to the motel without the child and forced the mother into a car, police said. He then dropped her off at a Warden area home.
“There appears to have been some form of dispute, and the end result of the dispute was the father leaving with the child without the consent of the mother,” McLane adds.
Amber Alerts are generally only issued when it comes to a stranger abduction, but in some cases they will issue one in a parental abduction if they believe the child may be in danger.
Police say the child's mother is unharmed and while the suspect isn't in custody yet, it is just a matter of time.
“We've been in communication with him and we've made arrangements that he's going to turn himself in,” McLane reveals.
The child is being placed in the care of Children's Aid until it can be determined where and with whom she'll be safest.
Daniel James David, 21, is described as black, 5'10", with black, short hair and brown eyes. He has a scar under his right eye. He is believed to be driving a silver, four-door, 2006 Mazda M6, with Ontario licence plate AYFZ 177.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 416-808-4300, or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477), or online at www.222tips.com.
This was the second Amber Alert issued this week. The first ended when two young boys from north of Guelph were found safe in Temagami. For more on Amber Alerts and how they are helping to keep kids safe, click the video links.

Nevaeh Gough is back with her family, and police in Toronto have cancelled the Amber Alert issued earlier today when she was driven away by her father, Daniel James David, after an alleged domestic altercation between the 10-month old's parents.

Police were called to a home on Warden Avenue at 1:35 p.m. EDT (1735 UTC) regarding a domestic dispute. Police allege Mr David arrived at a motel where the mother and child were staying and assaulted the infant's mother, then drove away with the child. When he returned to the hotel, they allege he forced the mother into the car and drove her to the home on Warden Avenue, from which he later fled.

Police issued the alert, along with descriptions of Mr David and his vehicle, and the warning that he may have a gun.

The alert was canceled off after approximately an hour when the baby's grandfather brought her to the police, about 7 p.m. local time.

Mr David was described as 5’10”, black, with black, short hair and brown eyes and has a cheek scar under his right eye. His vehicle is a silver, four-door, 2006 Mazda M6, with Ontario license plate AYFZ 177.
