An Amber Alert has been issued for a 6-year-old Rhode Island boy police say may be on his way to Washington.

Daniel Britt was last seen a week ago with his mom, Andria Britt who has family in Washington state.

Britt had shared custody of Daniel with his father but skipped a court date last week and failed to return.

The court has since granted the father sole custody. The alert also cited an “immediate risk of harm” to both Daniel and his mother.

Police updated the Amber Alert issued Wednesday for Daniel Britt of Woonsocket to include a gray 1992 Chevrolet Astro van with Washington state registration ABR1512. That’s in addition to a red 2004 Ford Focus with Rhode Island registration 942-649.

Britt is 34, 135 pounds and 5 feet, 5 inches.

Daniel has blue eyes and brown hair, he’s 4 feet, 3 inches tall and 50 pounds.
