Amber Alert issued in Quebec, Ontario for missing 5-year-old boy

An Amber Alert has been issued in both Quebec and Ontario for a 5-year-old boy who went missing in Brossard, a community in the Greater Montreal Area.

Sûreté du Québec, Quebec’s provincial police service, said the boy, named Getty Shi Gao, went missing at around 6 p.m. on Monday. The alert was sent early Tuesday.

The alert was also sent in Ontario shortly before 7:30 a.m. as police believe he may be in that province.

The boy is described as three feet, six inches tall and weighs around 88 pounds.

A 2024 Tesla Model 3 vehicle, white in color, is also sought. The car is registered in Ontario and has the plate number GVMK 536.

The alert said the suspect is 65-year-old Ruixue Yang, a woman who is also a resident of Brossard. There is no word if there is a relationship between the suspect and the young boy.

Anyone with information, or if spotted, is asked to call 911.

More to come.
