CICERO, Ill. — Family and police are looking for a missing 4-year-old boy believed to taken by his non-custodial mother and her boyfriend.
Jacoby Hart was last seen Saturday by his grandmother in the 4800 block of West 22nd Place in Cicero. Police believe Hart’s non-custodial mother, Abigail Lagunas, took Hart from her mother’s house at around 6 p.m., who was babysitting the boy.
According to a court order, Lagunas’ parenting time has been suspended since June 30.
Hart lives with his father, Kyle, in Joliet and still gets babysat by his maternal grandmother. The grandmother told Hart her daughter said she was going to take him to the park, but she never returned.
Hart was last seen wearing khaki shorts, a blue shirt, black and red shoes, and a blue hat.
His father told WGN News he is concerned that Lagunas and her boyfriend, Isidoro Topete are on methamphetamine with the boy.
Topete’s brother, Fernando, has been working with Hart to get the boy back. He told WGN News his brother is originally from Chicago but has been living in Gary and abusing drugs for the last five years.
Topete said he moved to Wisconsin around that time to get away from his brother, claiming that the 32-year-old “wanted to kill his family” while on drugs.
Isidoro Topete is believed to be driving a black Honda Civic with unknown registration.
