A missing baby has been found alive thanks to an alert jogger. An Amber Alert was issued in the early morning hours before 8-month old Genesis Haley was located.
According to the jogger, the little girl was discovered crying in a car seat, which had been placed in tall grass alongside a road in the north Houston area.

Genesis was taken to the hospital where she was deemed to be fine. Investigators are still searching for the suspect.
The Amber Alert was first issued at approximately 3:30 in the morning. Genesis has been inside her mother’s vehicle at a local gas station when the car was stolen.
Reportedly the mom wasn’t immediately able to call for help as she didn’t have a cell phone and had to make her way home first. Police later found the vehicle abandoned.
The baby and car seat were nowhere to be found. K-9 officers and a helicopter had been out searching local areas when the jogger located Genesis.
