A Federal Heights man was arrested in Denver on Thursday afternoon after abducting his 2-year-old son and fleeing from police, according to state and local law enforcement.
The boy was last seen at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the 2500 block of West 92nd Avenue in Federal Heights, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.
Louis Salvador, 41, was wanted on suspicion of felony domestic violence assault, misdemeanor child abuse and a restraining order violation when he forcibly abducted the 2-year-old on Wednesday night.
CBI officials issued a missing endangered person alert in the early hours of Thursday morning, which kicked off an extensive search by local, state and federal law enforcement for the boy.
He was found safe in Denver as of 12:15 p.m. and reunited with his mother, police officials said.
Salvador was arrested on the outstanding warrants, and additional charges for the boy’s abduction are pending, CBI officials said.
