SAN ANTONIO, TX- San Antonio Police Chief William McManus scheduled a news conference this morning about an Arizona baby missing since Christmas.
McManus announced Saturday that the case of 8-month-old Gabriel
Johnson was being treated as a homicide and that authorities would
search a landfill as soon as weather allowed.
Police said he would have an update on the case Tuesday morning, but offered no details.
Baby Gabriel was last seen Dec. 26 in San Antonio with his mother, 23-year-old Elizabeth Johnson.
The Phoenix-area woman was arrested on Dec. 30 in Florida and charged with kidnapping, child abuse, and custodial interference.
She failed to show up for a court hearing on Gabriel's custody and told the boy's father that she killed him - a story she later retracted.
