A search is intensifying for a missing 3-year-old Wisconsin boy, last seen with a caregiver on Tuesday.
As CrimeOnline previously reported, 3-year-old Elijah Vue was last seen by his caregiver at about 8 a.m. in the 3900 block of Mishicot Road. Police said no family members or other “associates” were in the area at the time.
According to nonprofit search agency, Missing Pieces Network, police arrested Katrina Baur Tuesday morning, who’s reportedly Elijah’s mother. An inmate list at Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Office, obtained by WHBY, does not yet list her charges.
Meanwhile, investigators were seen Wednesday wearing gloves while searching at the apartment complex off Mishicot Road, where Elijah was last seen.
Elijah is described as being of Hmong and white ethnicity with dark blond hair and brown eyes. He is 3 feet tall and has a birthmark on his left knee. He was last seen wearing gray pants, a long-sleeved, dark shirt, and red and green dinosaur slip-on shoes. He may have been carrying a red and white plaid blanket.
Police said they have requested assistance from local, state, and federal sources using dogs, drones, and personnel. They are also asking residents to check surveillance cameras for any images of the missing boy, as well as vehicles, outbuildings, and garages.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the state tip line at 844-267-6648, Two Rivers police at 920-686-7200, or the P3 app for anonymous tips.
