TORONTO – Police have cancelled an Amber Alert for a boy who is believed to have been abducted in the Niagara Region of southern Ontario.
However, police are still looking for Joseluis Resendiz, 9.
Resendiz is described as Hispanic, four-foot-six, 65 pounds with dark hair and was last seen wearing a blue soccer t-shirt (Messi-Barcelona), blue plaid shorts and blue Adidas running shoes.
He has a birthmark on his left wrist and a metallic replacement tooth on the right side of his mouth.
Niagara Regional police are trying to find the boy’s mother, identified as Tivisay Rojas-Castano, and his uncle, identified as Edison Rojas-Castano.
Police say both adults are believed to have fled the City of Niagara Falls with Joseluis in a grey four-door 2007 Mazda sedan with the Ontario licence plate BRAV 280.
They say the three may be in either Toronto or Hamilton.
Const. Derek Watson says the boy and his father are U.S. citizens who live in Georgia and were in Niagara Falls for a family visit to Marineland.
