BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (CBS/AP) — A father is in custody and an Amber Alert has been canceled for a young girl who was found safe.
Authorities initially issued the alert for 6-year-old Aylin Sofia Hernandez of Bridgeport, Connecticut. Her father, 39-year-old Oscar Hernandez, is accused of killing the girl's mother. He is now in custody.
Authorities believed they were in the Altoona, Pennsylvania, area.

Police say Hernandez is believed to have fled with his daughter.
