The Amber Alert for a 3-year-old Alabama boy has been canceled after the child was found with a relative in Georgia, multiple outlets report.
Khilan Bell was found safe Friday in Forest Park, Georgia, about 10 miles south of Atlanta, according to Gordo Police Chief Johnny Stevenson. A family member is accused of taking him.
An emergency missing child alert was issued for the toddler Thursday afternoon when he disappeared from a relative’s house in Gordo, Alabama, near Tuscaloosa.
