A 1-year-old boy was found safe after an AMBER Alert was issued on Monday morning, said the Perry County Sheriff’s Office in Ohio.

The boy, Steele Colt Estep, was taken from a home by a man who isn’t his biological father, according to authorities, which led to the AMBER Alert.

He was last seen wearing a dark long-sleeve shirt, blue jeans, and a gray jacket with a skull emblazoned on the back. Zeitler is 5'9” and weighs 180 pounds with blonde hair and blue eyes, authorities said.

The suspect is believed to be driving a red 1998 Ford Contour with license number HCN4100.
