Police say Thomas Whaley (right) abducted Ranaldo Brown, 5, in Mount Vernon Sunday.
Officials issued an Amber Alert this morning, one day after a career criminal abducted a 5-year-old boy in Westchester County, police said.
Ranaldo Brown was abducted at about 7:30 a.m. Sunday on West 3rd Street in Mount Vernon.
Police say his abductor, Thomas Whaley, 49, used to date the boy's mother -- but he and the child are not related.
Officials think Whaley and the boy could possibly be headed for New York City.
Brown is 3’ 6” and weighs about 50 pounds. He was last seen wearing blue denim shorts, a white cutoff shirt, and red and black sneakers.
Whaley, 49, is about six feet tall and weighs about 180 pounds. He has an extensive criminal history, including violent and weapon offenses, police said.
Anyone with information about the abduction can call Mount Vernon Police at 866-NYS-AMBER or dial 911, police said.
UPDATE: Was Found Yesterday Afternoon
