California parents of missing 7-month-old arrested, accused of murder

The parents of a Southern California baby, reported missing by his mother, were arrested and accused of murder, authorities said Friday.

San Bernardino County sheriff’s homicide detectives “arrested Jake and Rebecca Haro at their residence in Cabazon” and booked them on suspicion of murder, according to a department statement.

“Investigators will continue their search for seven-month-old Emmanuel Haro,” the sheriff’s department added.

The little boy was reportedly kidnapped outside a Big 5 Sporting Goods in Yucaipa last week.

San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputies began looking for Emmanuel Haro last week after Rebecca Haro said he was kidnapped outside Big 5 Sporting Goods in Yucaipa.

The mother was later “confronted with inconsistencies in her initial statement and declined to continue with the interview,” deputies said in statement on Saturday.

Rebecca Haro had originally told detectives that she was at her vehicle, changing Emmanuel’s diaper, when a man who she didn’t know knocked her unconscious, officials said.

When she regained consciousness, the baby was gone, she allegedly told investigators.

Jack Haro’s car was seized on Tuesday by investigators.
