Police have arrested a man on suspicion of child abduction after a mother and her two children – a toddler and a newborn baby – went missing from under care supervision.
The Metropolitan Police said Jamie-Leigh Kelly, 31, left a centre for vulnerable mothers and children in Colindale, north-west London, with her three-year-old daughter and newborn boy on Tuesday.
The force said the children – aged three and a newborn baby – are under care protection orders and were removed from the family assessment centre against the wishes of staff.
Ms Kelly, who has links to Thurrock in Essex and Havering, east London, then got into a blue Ford Fiesta with the children, which drove away at speed.
Police believe the driver of the vehicle was a woman and both driver and car have yet to be located.
