PHOENIX — A woman has been arrested for allegedly kidnapping a young boy from a Phoenix motel room and the child’s father is being accused of abuse and neglect.
Candace Clark, 31, is being held on suspicion of kidnapping and theft of a means of transportation, Phoenix police say.
Dominique San Miguel, 23, was arrested on suspicion of child neglect and abuse.
Police say San Miguel was at a motel Wednesday night with his 3-year-old and 5-year-old sons.
At some point, police say San Miguel hooked up with Clark and Sophia Del Toro Mendez, 38, and the three of them began drinking in his room.
San Miguel says he fell asleep and when he awoke, his wallet and youngest son were missing.
Del Toro Mendez was arrested on an unrelated drug charge. All three were booked into the Maricopa County jail.
