A 5-month-old baby reported missing from Tacoma was found safe with her mother Saturday afternoon.

Ava Belk and her 18-year-old mother, Nakeisha Belk, were found several hours after being taken by Ava’s father, 17-year-old Mickael Gordon.

Authorities are still searching for Gordon who remains on the loose.

According to the Washington State Patrol, Gordon assaulted the woman and fired off several gunshots. Gordon also threatened to kill the child.
