August 5, 2011 | 3:12 pm



An Amber Alert has been issued for a 4-year-old boy kidnapped from an Atascadero church shelter early Friday morning, police said.

Jeremy Guthrie was last seen about 9 p.m. at the Echo Shelter at First Baptist Church, located at the 6370 Atascadero Mall. His mother reported him missing at 6:30 a.m., police said, but they believe the kidnapping occurred about 4:30 a.m.

Jeremy’s mother told police her son might have been taken by Annette Hale, 52, who was also staying at the shelter.

(CNN) -- Authorities along the central coast of California are searching for a missing boy they believe was snatched from the shelter where he was staying by another resident.

Police issued an Amber Alert Friday for 4-year-old Jeremy Guthrie, who is thought to be wearing a camouflage shirt and bright blue underpants.

"Very dynamic situation as you can imagine. We're mobilizing every possible, every imaginable resource to find Jeremy. Unfortunately, we have not been successful at this point," said Steve Gesell, interim police chief.
Jeremy and his mother had been staying at the First Baptist Church Shelter in Atascadero, California, police said in a statement. He was last seen around 9 p.m. Thursday and may have been abducted around 4:30 a.m. Friday, when a door alarm sounded, they said.

..."A witness was reported to have heard a little boy say 'I don't want to go,' or something similar to that, and we have an eyewitness that believes they saw a woman holding what may have been Jeremy in a blanket as they left the building," he said.

If they were living in a shelter, it's hard telling when this woman will try to take him. I'm afraid she will get rid of him because it would be hard to find another shelter to go to with this kid in tow. I'm sure his picture is being plastered all over town.

Kidnapped Atascadero boy found safe
August 6, 2011

After an extensive search, Atascadero Police located missing 4-year-old Jeremy Guthrie in a vacant building and returned him to his mother at about 5 p.m. on Friday.

Police suspect Annette Hale, 53, who is not related to the boy, kidnapped him from the Echo Shelter at the First Baptist Church in Atascadero at around 4:30 a.m. on Friday.

Hale and the boy’s mother had spent time together while staying at the shelter. Police suspect the kidnapping was sparked by an argument between Hale and the boy’s mother.

Shortly after receiving a phone call from someone saying Jeremy was waiting in a vacant building at the old Ford dealership at 3905 El Camino Real, police found the boy unharmed and wearing the same clothes he had on when he was abducted.
