BALTIMORE (WMAR) — An 11-month-old girl has been returned home safely after allegedly being abducted by her father, and now police say he has a warrant out for his arrest.

The incident originally happened on Sunday just before noon in the 1200 block of Silverthorne Road.

Baltimore Police say 23-year-old Asantae Wilson forcibly entered the home and abducted Khamaya Jean Walston after threatening the girl's grandmother.

Detectives believed Wilson was under the influence at the time he took his daughter and were concerned for Walston's safety.

Later, the grandmother contacted investigators, telling them an unknown male had dropped Khamaya back off at the house.

Police say they still haven't been able to locate Wilson, but have obtained an arrest warrant charging him with burglary and destruction of property in connection to the incident.
