CABAZON, Calif. (KABC) — Nearly a week after the disappearance of a 7-month-old boy<\/a> in Yucaipa, investigators Tuesday seized a vehicle belonging to the baby’s father.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel Haro was reported missing last Thursday evening after his mother, Rebecca Haro, said she was attacked and knocked out in a parking lot near a Big 5 store in Yucaipa. When she regained consciousness, she told investigators her baby was gone and that he had been kidnapped.<\/p>\n

Since Emmanuel’s disappearance, the boys’ parents have come under scrutiny after the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said that investigators found “inconsistencies”<\/a> in the mother’s story.<\/p>\n

“Rebecca was confronted with inconsistencies in her initial statement and declined to continue with the interview,” the Sheriff’s Department said in a news release Saturday. “At this point in the investigation, investigators are unable to rule out foul play in the disappearance of Emmanuel.”<\/p>\n

Sheriff’s officials said investigators interviewed multiple people, including the child’s father, Jake Haro, who pleaded guilty to willful cruelty to a child<\/a> following a 2018 arrest, according to Riverside County records.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for the Sheriff’s Department says Jake Haro’s vehicle was seized for evidence amid the investigation. He is cooperating with law enforcement and investigators, his attorney said in a statement.<\/p>\n

At this point, deputies have not put out a description for a potential suspect.<\/p>\n

Over the weekend, detectives also searched the parents’ Cabazon home with K-9 units. A fire broke out Tuesday at a house on the same block where the Haros live. Authorities say the fire’s proximity to the Haros’ residence appears to be a coincidence.<\/p>\n

Authorities are continuing their search for Emmanuel and ask anyone with information to contact the sheriff’s Specialized Investigations Division at 909-890-4904.<\/p>\n
