ALAMOSA — Authorities issued a statewide alert Monday evening after a one-day-old child was abducted from an Alamosa hospital by her own mother.
The mother, Cynthia Sandoval, is a known drug user, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. She gave birth to the baby girl, Leah Sandoval, Sunday at her Blanca home.
After learning of the birth, workers with the Department of Human Services requested Sandoval take the child to the Alamosa hospital so the child could be placed into the care of the state, said CBI spokeswoman Susan Medina.
