The California Highway Patrol has issued an Amber Alert for an armed individual suspected of kidnapping his wife and infant daughter in Lancaster.
According to the CHP, 31-year-old Sabrina Sanchez and her 2-month-old daughter Itzel Sanchez were last seen on Sunday at noon with 25-year-old Efrain Sanchez-Jiminez. Authorities are warning that Sanchez-Jiminez should be considered armed and dangerous.
Authorities believe that the victims left with the suspect out of fear for their safety, as the suspect had previously committed a sexual assault against a family member. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department states that Sanchez has threatened to murder his wife and child, and he is believed to be armed with a handgun.
Sanchez-Jiminez is described as Hispanic, standing at 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing 130 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes and was last seen wearing a white tank top and silver shorts. Sabrina Sanchez, on the other hand, is 5 feet 2 inches tall and weighs 135 pounds. She has black hair and brown eyes and was last seen wearing a red and black dress, pink shorts, and a black shirt.
The suspect’s car is a silver 2007 Buick Lucerne with a Colorado license plate number of AUI-X94.
News footage shows sheriff’s patrol vehicles surrounding a house at the intersection of 161st Street East and Sweetaire Avenue.
If anyone spots Sanchez-Jiminez, they are urged to call 911 immediately.
The Amber Alert was broadcasted by the sheriff’s department at approximately 12:55 a.m. on Monday.
