LOS ANGELES, Calif. — The California Highway Patrol has issued an Amber Alert for 4-year-old Selah Tillary, who was reportedly last seen in Los Angeles on August 19 at approximately 11 a.m. The alert was issued on behalf of the Los Angeles Police Department as authorities work to locate the missing child and determine his whereabouts. Officials have identified 23-year-old Donnel Paige as a suspect who allegedly took Selah. Authorities have released descriptions of both the child and the suspect as they seek assistance from the public. The Amber Alert covers Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties.
Law enforcement officials are urging residents and motorists in the affected areas to remain alert and report any information that could help investigators locate Selah safely. Anyone who sees the child or the identified suspect should immediately call 911 rather than attempting to intervene. The circumstances surrounding Selah’s reported disappearance remain under investigation. Because the case involves a young child, authorities are asking the public to take the alert seriously and provide information as quickly as possible.
Amber Alerts are issued in serious child-abduction cases when authorities believe the public may be able to assist in locating a child and bringing them to safety. Information provided by witnesses can be critical in helping investigators identify vehicles, locations, or movements connected to an active search. Families and community members across Southern California are being encouraged to pay attention to official updates from law enforcement and share verified information responsibly. The search for Selah remains active as officers and investigators work to locate the 4-year-old and ensure his safe return.
Anyone with potentially relevant information should contact emergency services at 911. Members of the public should avoid approaching the suspect if encountered and should instead provide authorities with the location and any available identifying details. Authorities continue to investigate the reported abduction and are asking the community to remain vigilant while efforts to locate Selah Tillary continue.
