A toddler from the Bronx has been missing for almost a month following a visit with his biological father, who is now under police questioning. The child’s mother, concerned about her son’s whereabouts, alerted the authorities.
The missing child, Montrell Williams, aged two, was last seen on May 10 around 10 p.m. He was at an apartment building located at the intersection of Hunts Point Avenue and Gilbert Place in Hunts Point, approximately a mile from his residence. At the time, he was dressed in a white shirt and a diaper.
According to authorities, Montrell’s father, who shares custody and has visitation rights, took the boy on May 10 but failed to return him to his mother. This unusual circumstance led the mother to contact the police.
The father is currently being questioned by the police regarding the toddler’s disappearance.
The New York Police Department (NYPD) is seeking the public’s assistance in locating the missing child. Anyone with information about Montrell’s disappearance is urged to contact the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline. The hotline offers services in both English and Spanish.
In addition to calling the hotline, the public can also submit tips online through the CrimeStoppers website or via the NYPD’s official Twitter account.
