The toddler was found a few hours after she was reported missing in a nearby vacant apartment which was locked. Plano Police spokesperson Carl Duke said there is no way the child could have entered the vacant apartment on her own, and they are searching for a child abductor. Someone that would do that I would consider a dangerous person.
Investigators continue to work on leads.
They still don't have any suspects, but they are particularly interested in sex offenders. They believe that whoever took the girl is no stranger in the area. Police are circulating fliers hoping for new leads in the case. The victim's mother, Linda Moreno, appealed to the public for help in solving the crime. The girl and five of her siblings were removed from Moreno's home by Child Protective Services after the incident because of concern about neglect.
