ROCKWALL, Texas - A missing North Texas baby who was allegedly abducted by her biological parents is now safe.
An Amber Alert was issued on Monday morning for 6-month-old Nova Brady, who was reportedly taken overnight from a home in the 300 block of Munson Street in Rockwall.
"After investigation, detectives developed a high level of confidence that Nova's biological parents, who recently lost parental rights to the child, were likely responsible for taking the child and have left the DFW area," the Rockwall Police Department said.
In an update, the department confirmed Nova was located east of Springfield, Missouri with 26-year-old Dakota Brady and 22-year-old Margaret Van Aken.
The baby is said to be safe.
Her biological parents were both taken into custody, and criminal charges are pending.
