By adamg on Fri, 08/23/2013 - 11:04pm
UPDATE, 11:10 p.m. Police recovered both the car and the baby on McGreevey Way in Roxbury. Suspect was nowhere near either.
Seems this guy kidnapped his girlfriend's newborn son in her car. Boston Police are looking for Damond Brown, who is black, 40, 6'1" and 225 lbs. He's driving a gray Infiniti, Mass. plates 637-SM3, with a stroller in the back seat.
He was last seen wearing a gray shirt, gray shorts and green sneakers.

Garbled details
The details last night seem to have been garbled. According to boston.com the missing child was a 7-month old girl, not a newborn boy.
Strange story
I thought the "newborn" tag was odd, too. No one calls a 7 month old a newborn, though even those calling it a newborn I saw on the news said it was a boy.
Still, a friend of the family just takes off with the boy. My gut is that it was a classic case of taking off, then realizing that there was a boy inside.
I'd love to know the whole story, but since it is a baby, I will accept if we never hear it.
