Emmanuel was reported missing Aug. 14 under suspicious circumstances after his mother said she was attacked and knocked unconscious outside a Big 5 store in Yucaipa, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.

Detectives say the baby's mom, who said he had been kidnapped, "was confronted with inconsistencies" in her story.

The desperate search continues for Emmanuel Haro, a missing 7-month-old in Southern California, after authorities said his mother is no longer cooperating.
