Search continues for Indianapolis baby Amiah Robertson

Amiah Robertson was reported missing on March 16.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis police say the search for a missing 8-month-old baby is being treated as a homicide investigation.

Chief Bryan Roach called a news conference Saturday and expressed frustration over a lack of cooperation from people who should be able to help authorities. He says he's "angry," a week after Amiah Robertson was reported missing by her family.

The chief says, "Somebody knows the whereabouts."

Police and volunteers have been searching along the White River in Indianapolis, based on certain items found along the bank.

Amiah Robertson, an eight-month-old baby, went missing last week.

Asked if he believes Amiah is alive, Lt. Bruce Smith says investigators "hope for the best" but can't ignore the fact that the baby can't take care of herself.

Amiah was reported missing on March 16 and police issued a statewide Silver Alert for her on Tuesday.

Robertson's mother is not a suspect and has been cooperating with detectives, police told WRTV.

On Tuesday, Indianapolis detectives executed a search warrant at a residence in the 200 block of South Holmes Avenue, according to a press release.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call IMPD Missing Person's detectives at 317-327-6160, 317-327-3811 or Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana at 317-262-8477.

Investigators believe a body found in North Carolina is a 13-year-old girl kidnapped from her home three weeks ago.

Authorities said at a news conference Wednesday that preliminary tests show the body found a day earlier is that of Hania Aguilar.

The body was found in a body of water in Robeson County about 10 miles south of the mobile home park where she was kidnapped on Nov. 5 after going outside to start a relative's SUV before school.

Police say a man forced the teenager into an SUV and drove off. The SUV was found several miles south of her mobile home park. The body was found a few miles farther away.

LIVE - Lumberton Police Department news conference:

The FBI issued a news release late Tuesday saying a body found in Robeson County earlier in the day was being taken to Raleigh for an autopsy and identification.

The body was found as part of a search for 13-year-old Hania Aguilar, who was kidnapped Nov. 5 from a mobile home park after going outside to start a relative's SUV before school. 

But authorities have not confirmed whether the body is Aguilar.

Police say a man forced the teenager into an SUV and drove off. The SUV was found several miles south of her mobile home park. The body was found a few miles farther away.

Authorities plan to hold a news conference at the Lumberton Police Department at 3:30 p.m. to provide an update on the investigation. 

Emilliano Terry update: Missing child's mom Camilia Terry arrested by police after body found:

CLEVELAND - The search for 3-year-old Emilliano Terry was suspended Monday night after the body of a young boy was found at a waste plant in Oakwood Village, Cleveland police said.

Cleveland police and the Cleveland Division of the FBI held a news conference just before 10 p.m. Monday about the boy, who disappeared from Kossuth Park at about 5 p.m. Sunday.

“We come here with heavy hearts, I’m sure you understand. Today, at approximately 4 o’clock, a body of a small child matching the description of Emilliano Terry was discovered at a waste treatment plant in Oakwood Village. At this time, we have suspended the search for Emilliano Terry, pending a ruling from the coroner’s office tomorrow morning," said Cleveland Police Chief Michael McGrath.

"So, in other words, right now, currently, we are treating this as a homicide, rather than a missing person or abduction.”

Cleveland police said officers spotted a Waste Management truck in the area of East 130th Street and Buckeye Road, and recorded the number of the truck. Officers then contacted Waste Management to have them set aside the trash from that truck and that's where the body was found intact.

The child's body was wrapped in four or five plastic bags, Cleveland police said. The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's office has an autopsy planned for Tuesday morning to decide time and manner of death.

His mother, 20-year-old Camilia Terry, told police she was pushing one of her three children on the swing when the 3-year-old vanished. Her 5-year-old told police he saw a car in the area, but Cleveland police said there was nothing to indicate Emilliano got into that car.

Camilia Terry called 911 and told dispatchers that she hadn’t seen her son for 15 minutes. She cried and described Emilliano’s cloths before hanging up.

“Some time during the day, of today, the statements of Miss Terry became very inconsistent and we decide that we would further investigate her involvement in this situation,” Cleveland Police Cmdr. Deon McCauley said.

Camilia Terry is in the is in the custody of Cleveland police and it will be up to prosecutors to determine charges. Officers said she did not admit to any crime.

Her other two children are now with Cuyahoga County Children and Family Services. Cleveland police said they plan to search Camilia Terry's house again.

"On behalf of the Cleveland Division of Police, our condolences go out to all those who loved and cared for this child throughout his life, and to the community who came to care for him these last 24 hours," McGrath said in a blog post . "This is a tragic end for an innocent young life in our community. And we will not accept it."
