A missing toddler who was abducted out of Fontana on Thursday was found safe.

Fontana Police identified the suspect as Alexus Gonzalez, 24, and the boy as Sebastian Sanchez, 5. Gonzalez is the child’s mother, police said.

Gonzalez also has a warrant from the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s office on unrelated charges for kidnapping her one-and-a-half-year-old son, Mateo, just three weeks earlier.

“Detectives and our Fugitive Apprehension Team continuously worked this case until Alexus was tracked down to a residence in San Bernardino where she was arrested and both children were found safe,” police said.

According to officers, an unknown person entered a home on the 15700 block of Paine Street between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. on Thursday and kidnapped Sanchez.

No further details were released as the case remains under investigation.
