Springfield, IL, January 09, 2006 --(PR.com)-- The Hamtramck Police Department issued an Amber Alert for a 6-month baby who was abducted at gun point Sunday afternoon.

Two African-American males kidnapped Lasepia Janae Rankins, an African-American female, from her babysitter at her Hamtramck home at 4 p.m. Sunday.

One man wearing a ski mask identified himself as the child’s father. The second man, who was not wearing a mask, was wearing a goatee, red sweatshirt, blue jeans and was armed with a handgun.

The men escaped in a silver two-door sedan. Police suspect the father may reside in Indiana.
