Brown-Giamarco is considered an endangered missing child, according to Sgt. James Fuqua of the Columbus Division of Police. He is approximately 2 feet 3 inches tall, 45 pounds and has brown hair with blue eyes.
The Amber Alert said that 24-year-old Sierra Brown and Tayson Hixon, 23, are suspects related to Brown-Biamarco's disappearance.
Detectives told NBC4 that the alert stems from domestic situation and they have reason to believe the boy is no longer safe. Brown is the child's mother, and Hixon is Brown's friend, according to detectives.
The initial alert was sent out by CPD just after 9 a.m. Fuqua said the outages with Microsoft and CrowdStrike prevented the state from issuing an Amber Alert for this child, but at 10 a.m., the statewide alert was officially issued.
Police urge that anyone with information on the child's disappearance to call 1-877-AMBER-OH or dial 911.
