The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department confirmed Wednesday morning that they are aware of a potential sighting of the missing 7-month-old, Emmanuel Haro, in Kern County, California.
“Investigators are aware of the reported sighting. No information as to where in Kern County was provided,” a spokesperson for the Sheriff’s Department informed KTLA via email.
Haro was reported missing on August 14, after his mother claimed he was taken from the parking lot of a Big 5 Sporting Goods Store in Yucaipa when a stranger allegedly knocked her unconscious while she was changing his diaper.
To this point, the focus of the investigation into the baby’s disappearance has focused on his parents, Jake and Rebecca Haro.
Authorities, noting inconsistencies in his mother’s accounts, began to suspect the story was fabricated.
The Sheriff’s Department stated it had addressed Rebecca Haro regarding the inconsistencies and concluded that foul play in the boy’s disappearance could not be ruled out.
