Brandon’s mother was at work and in the care of his grandmother at the time he was kidnapped, Camarillo told reporters. The child was taken in a matter of minutes while his grandmother was unloading groceries. Police said Brandon’s father is incarcerated.
Police described the suspect as a dark-complexioned Hispanic male with short hair. The family said they don’t recognize the suspect.
