"We have a low-life out there that kidnapped an 8-month-old baby, her mom, her dad and her uncle," Merced County Sheriff Vernon Warnke said in a video posted to Facebook on Monday evening. "So far why have no idea why the kidnapping [happened]. We have no motivation behind it. We just know that they are gone."
