PENNSYLVANIA AMBER ALERT STILL ACTIVE: Baby Abducted, Grandmother Found Dead in
Upper Merion Find Saavni Venna Pennsylvania Amber Alert
A woman is dead and her infant granddaughter missing after a homicide and abduction at an Upper Merion apartment, according to police.
Pennsylvania State Police issued an amber child abduction alert for the Upper Merion Township Police Department on Monday.
Police say Saavni Venna, a 10-month-old baby, was abducted from the Marquis Apartment complex on the 200 block of West Dekalb Pike in King of Prussia some time between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Monday.
Investigators issued an amber alert just before 5 p.m. after they say a relative arrived at the apartment earlier in the afternoon and found the dead body of the baby's grandmother, 61-year-old Satyavathi Venna, and then realized the child was missing. Friends of the family tell NBC10 it was the baby's father, Shiva Venna, who called police.
Police described Venna as an Asian-Indian female, standing 2-foot-6 and weighing 21 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a white dress with pink flowers and wearing unknown jewelry.
"Please don't do any harm to the kid," said Vasu Velaga, a neighbor of the family. "Please release her immediately. Please inform the police."
Shiva Venna spoke Monday night during a press conference.
"If someone finds my baby could you please bring my baby back?" Venna pleaded. "Don't do any harm to my baby."
If you have any information on the abduction, please call 911.
