A California mother says she woke up to her infant son missing after someone reportedly knocked her unconscious in a San Bernardino County retail parking lot.

Rebecca Haro and her 7-month-old son, Emmanuel Haro, reportedly went to a Big 5 Sporting Goods on the 34000 block of Yucaipa Boulevard on Thursday, to purchase a mouth guard for her older son.

Haro’s other two children and her husband, Jake Haro, stayed at the local park where their son had football practice, KTLA reported.

“I came over here and parked right on the edge,” she told KTLA’s Ellina Abovian. “When I was driving over, I smelled the baby had gone to the restroom, so I said, ‘Don’t worry, we are going to change you.’”

Harro parked and proceeded to change Emmanuel in the parking lot. Harro said she remembered a stranger greeting her and nothing else.

“I was going to get the diaper, and somebody said, ‘Hola,’ and I don’t remember anything since,” she recalled in tears. “I woke up here on the floor, and I didn’t see Emmanuel.”

Harro said when she woke up, her son was gone. She also sustained a black eye, according to KTLA.

Upon responding to the missing child call, the San Bernardino County Sheriff deployed K9 scent-tracking dogs, but they were unable to find Emmanuel.

On Saturday, investigators from the Specialized Investigations Division continued the search for the missing infant.
