Mother Arrested as Desperate Family Searches for Missing 3-Year-Old Elijah Vue

The mother of a 3-year-old boy who went missing Tuesday morning has been arrested in connection with his disappearance, police said Saturday.

Katrina Baur, 31, was arrested alongside a man identified as Jesse Vang on child neglect charges after Elijah Vue vanished earlier this week. Baur and Vang, described as the boy's caretaker, are being held on $15,000 and $20,000 cash bail, respectively, and barred from contacting each other or anyone under 18 if bail is posted.

Neighbors, friends and family continue to search for the missing boy. He was last seen around 8 a.m. on Tuesday in Two Rivers, Wisconsin, and was sent there by his mother to stay with Vang away from their hometown of Wisconsin Dells, according to Manitowoc County District Attorney Jacalyn LaBre. Baur was not in Two Rivers when her son disappeared.
