RANDOLPH COUNTY, N.C. -- Authorities in Randolph County, N.C., say the 7-month-old baby at the center of an Amber Alert was found safe, and her father was arrested.
Multiple agencies, including the U.S. Secret Service, FBI and Randolph County Sheriff's Office confirmed that Carl Ray Kennedy was arrested in Randleman, N.C., and is in police custody.
Emma Grace Kennedy was abducted from a gas station in Danville, Va., on Sunday night after police said Carl Kennedy attacked her mother with a knife and sped away in a gold Suzuki sedan.
Authorities said Emma appeared to be in good health and was evaluated at a local hospital. She was discharged at 2:45 p.m. Emma's mother was notified.
On Monday, Virginia state authorities traveled to Durham, N.C. after a person said a man tried to sell them a baby, but officials determined that case was unrelated to the Amber Alert. That report came after the pair was possibly spotted in the area of Seven Springs, N.C.
