Detroit Police investigate carjacking and missing two-year-old

Detroit Police have located a vehicle that was involved in a carjacking with a two-year-old girl inside. Investigators are now searching for a suspect and the child.

[snip]

The car was empty with no sign of a suspect or the child. The vehicle was found near East Philadelphia and Beaubien.

Most carjackers ditch the car with the child still inside when they find out there is a kid in the car... Something else is going on here, IMO. Either a made up story, or an intentional kidnapping.
 
I take it there is no AA, as of yet? I'm only asking because my phone should have been lighting up like crazy by now if there was. I'll keep an eye on this one. I'm about 60 miles from Detroit.

Latest update is that the child's father was driving the borrowed vehicle :waitasec:

Local news in a few minutes. I'll report more info when available.
 
Oh my... Prayers for this little one. What is wrong with people???

I opened a thread in the Missing forum. No Amber Alert yet. The father was driving the "borrowed" (or stolen?) vehicle that was located.
 
Bianca turned 2 last Saturday. Very smart, verbal. Spent the night with her father and is now missing.

Interesting they did not say whether or not the childs car seat was in the vehicle. hmmmm....
 
Red jacket, red shirt underneath the jacket and a red car? This sounds like a story Brandon Lockett came up with when little Aveion went missing.

How would the guy see what color shirt the kidnapper/carjacker was wearing under a coat?

I hope I'm wrong, but this doesn't sound good.
 
There's some stuff on Facebook about this already. It says that the car that was located is not necessarily the one that was stolen. Do we have confirmation one way or the other?
 
Another Sky Metalawa, or a real missing child? I hope Detroit police are able to nail it down pretty quick. If she is really missing, time is the most important thing. If there are searches, I'll be there. I can make Detroit in an hour from my house, and my Go Bags are still packed.

I could be at the New Center area in half an hour, but I don't drive on freeways any more.

Channel 4 live at scene: Intensive search going on now. Door-to-door in the area where the vehicle was located. No known custody issues, only that the toddler spent the night with her father. Description of "car-jackers" provided: Two African American men, one of whom is 6' tall and weighs about 190. Noon news over.
 
Fox 2 reports the carjacking occured on the 200 block of Custer Street. Police later recovered the stolen vehicle on Beaubien between Euclid and Philadelphia, but Bianca Jones was not inside.

I'm pretty sure that this would be the intersection where the car was allegedly taken, if the MLive article is correct (hit or miss on their reporting sometimes).

ETA: This is the location given by their local TV news:
The father of the two-year-old Bianca Jones reported that he was carjacked near Custer and Brush Street just north of West Grand Boulevard. The child was in a car seat in the back of the grey Grand Marquis when an unknown suspect drove off

And that would be: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&n...code_result&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CCEQ8gEwAA

Brush and Custer cross at the second map location, however, Grand Blvd is two blocks over from Custer, and runs in the same direction. THe two map locations are only a couple blocks apart, so it was somewhere in that general area.
