Deputies are seeking the parent of a young child found in Canyon Country Thursday afternoon, officials said.
UPDATE: After a tip from a citizen, a parent was located, according to a post on Twitter from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“Thank you for all of your shares in helping,” the post said. “Incident under investigation.”
The child, who says his first name is Nicholas, was found riding his scooter near Soledad Canyon Road and Lost Canyon Road, according to Shirley Miller, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“Deputies (were) unable to locate parents,” Miller said in a social media post.
Nicholas is a white male, about three to four years old, with blonde hair and hazel eyes, Miller said.
He is wearing an orange long sleeve shirt and jean shorts, according to Miller.
Due to the privacy of the minor, a photo is unable to be released publicly, according to Sheriff’s officials.
Anyone with information on the child is encouraged to contact the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station at (661) 255-1121.
