RIVER ROUGE, MICH (Fox 2) – Christopher Brown, 13, a cognitively impaired boy, went missing around 10 a.m. Oct. 27 from the McDonald’s at 10995 W. Jefferson Boulevard in River Rouge.

Brown was seen chaining his bike to the bike rack outside the restaurant and then going inside for about a minute. When he got out, he got into a dark-colored Chevrolet Tahoe with Florida license plates. The license plate number is DSM1544.

A few hours after she disappeared, police discovered the SUV was registered to 58-year-old Christopher Alan Brown, the child’s father. The elder Brown’s parental rights were terminated earlier this year.

The vehicle was last seen in Toledo, Ohio. The elder Brown has ties to Georgia, Alabama and Florida. Police believe he could take the teenager to Florida.

“We warn the public not to approach Christopher Allan Brown as he is considered dangerous and to contact local law enforcement,” the River Rouge Police Department said in a statement. The statement was included.
