Kidnapped toddler located but sadly dies at hospital

Halo Branton was a happy 11-month-old baby girl until she was kidnapped in Bellevue, New York.

The baby was taken from her home one night around 11:00 pm by an unnamed kidnapper.

She was later found hidden inside a pipe filled with water in a heated shed and was rushed to a hospital.

At the time, police said they did “not have an update” on her health.

However, not long after, she was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Police are asking for help locating her kidnapper, who was, ultimately, her killer.

Authorities have asked for any footage or tips relating to a woman wearing black pants and black sneakers carrying a baby under a blanket any time after 9:00 p.m. on March 9

No parent should ever have to live through this horrific nightmare.

We pray that the police are able to locate the monster who did this and that the family of Halo finds peace during this tragic time.
