PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A 15-month-old girl is safe, according to reports, after an Amber Alert was issued for her and her father, 33-year-old Anthony Burton.
Burton was driving a 2006 black Chrysler 300 with Washington plate AUY0186. It has temporary tags and after market chrome wheels.
Officials say Auburn Police responded to a domestic violence call Sunday involving Burton and the girl’s mother. He threatened to kill the victim and threatened suicide by cop if confronted by police.
He fled the scene, taking his daughter with him.
Burton last spoke with police and his family Tuesday afternoon, but refused to bring the child to safety. In the past, Burton has threatened violence against his daughter and her mother because of ongoing family issues.
It is unclear where the child was found.
