Original Story
An Amber Alert has been issued for a 5-year-old Georgia boy after his father was shot Friday morning, police said.
According to a spokesperson from the Haralson County Sheriff’s Office, Brayden Lee Dobbs was abducted from his father’s home near Buchanan, off of Bethlehem Church Road, at around 6 a.m. The child’s mother, 42-year-old Anitritte Boyd Dobbs, and an unknown male are accused of taking the boy.
While at the victim’s home, a struggle broke out that ended with Brayden’s father, identified as Lee Dobbs, with a gunshot wound. Police said the unknown man shot Lee Dobbs, then fled with Boyd Dobbs in what neighbors believe was a black Dodge Charger.
“Investigators are pulling video evidence and hope to have the unknown male identified soon,” the sheriff’s office said.
