Authorities have canceled an Amber Alert for a 5-year-old boy who was kidnapped early Wednesday morning from his Dalles, Ore. home.

Police say Brian DePriest, 37, broke into the home of Skylar Coulcer-Jarding, and attacked two adults with a hammer.

DePriest then grabbed Skylar, and fled in an unknown direction. Police say he had a stolen vehicle waiting nearby.

Skylar has been found safe and unharmed, and the police have their suspect in custody.
