Man arrested for child endangerment during police investigation

UPDATE: Monday, October 31

Authorities tell News Channel 3 that after an investigation, "it was determined a kidnapping did not occur" and the two suspects who had been detained were released. An adult male subject was reported to have been arrested for child endangerment and resisting an executive officer "due to his failure to cooperate with an investigation and putting a child in harm’s way during a vehicle enforcement stop by deputies."

Report from weekend:

Riverside County Sheriff's Deputies detained a man on Saturday they believe was involved with the kidnapping of a juvenile.

Authorities indicated they had a visual of a vehicle in the area of Da Vall Drive and Frank Sinatra Drive in Rancho Mirage that may have been involved in a kidnapping at 5:43 p.m.

Deputies followed the vehicle, which stopped in the 67000 block of Highway 111.

They learned that the vehicle was occupied by an adult male, the driver and a juvenile.

The driver was uncooperative and refused to step out of the vehicle. Deputies were on the scene negotiating with the man.

The child was eventually released and deputies say is safe. Authorities detained the suspect shortly after 7 p.m.
