The car of an eastern Arkansas man who
failed to return his nine-year-old son to his mother after a visit
was found in Virginia over the weekend.
Michael Yarbro drove his son, Troy, to Virginia over the weekend
in an older model Chevrolet Cavalier, police said Monday. Yarbro
then dumped the vehicle in Fredericksburg, Virginia, and the pair
began hitchhiking. Troy`s mother Tammy Dewhitt says she was given
that account by police.
Dewhitt reported her son missing to the Cross County sheriff`s
office Sunday night. Arkansas State Police issued a level two
Morgan Nick Alert Monday morning.
State police spokesman Bill Sadler says the alert included
information that Yarbro has a history of physical abuse, but it was
not intended to be released to the public. Yarbro has no criminal
record of abuse.
The father and son were last seen in Arkansas Friday afternoon.
