British police have launched an urgent search for a two-month-old baby after arresting the infant’s mother and her boyfriend who had been missing since January.
The Metropolitan Police Service said Tuesday that the baby, who police believe was born possibly one to two days before disappearing without receiving medical attention, is still missing.
The baby’s mother, Constance Marten, 35, and her partner, Mark Gordon, 48, were arrested Monday night in Brighton, southern England, after a member of the public spotted them. Marten is an aristocrat, while Gordon is a convicted sex offender.
The couple had been on the run since the baby was born in early January. Police said they sought to avoid being detected by paying for everything in cash and covering their faces when on CCTV.
Police are asking anyone with information to call in, and are continuing to search for the baby. A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police Service said Tuesday that “work is ongoing to try and locate the baby.”
