Police say a 6-year-old Marysvile boy at the center of an Amber Alert has been found safe at a home in Brier. The alert has been canceled.
His mother was being questioned late Wednesday night.
The child is autistic with the mental capacity of an 18-month-old, according to police.
Child Protective Services attempted a welfare check on the boy Wednesday, but his mother would not let them into the Marysville home.
The alert said CPS left to obtain a court order to place the boy into State Custody. The mother made a statement to CPS that she would flee the area if things did not go her way.
When CPS returned with a court order to remove the boy, the mother had taken him and left with her boyfriend. Police said they may have been headed toward the Los Angeles area.
