Child missing, Woodbridge man being investigated

Child missing, Woodbridge man being investigated


York Regional Police are investigating a Woodbridge man after he violated a court order issued by the Children’s Aid Society.
Investigators and case workers were at the suspect’s house in Vaughan last Thursday to remove two children in the suspect’s custody under court order.
The mother of the children was arrested at the scene and one child was taken from their custody.
The father has since fled from police and investigators, taking his two-month-old son with him.
Homicide has stepped in for the week-long investigation.
Authorities are concerned for the infant’s health because he was born premature.
In a news conference to the media, police stated the nine-week-old infant had not been seen for over a month. It was first reported that the baby, George, was in the care of the suspect’s relative.
Police investigation confirmed the facts were not true and some family members were not aware the couple even had a child, according to police.
Police say the suspect and his child failed to show up for a doctor’s appointment as recently as Wednesday, which causes the department great concern.
While the Homicide Unit does not suspect there is a homicide to investigate, the unit also investigates missing persons and has strong suspicions of foul play.
The suspect and his infant were last seen at a doctor’s appointment in the Woodbridge area on October 31, according to police.
Ricky Doodhnaught, 31, of Woodbridge, is wanted for two incidents involving theft of gas.
He is described as male, brown, 5’10”, 240 lbs. He has short black hair and brown eyes.
Police believe Doodhnaught is driving a silver Dodge Caravan, 2002 with one of two Ontario license plate numbers: BMJZ 199 OR BFJT 783.
