10-month-old Georgia boy found; babysitter arrested

A 10-month-old boy who was reported missing from Bartow County was located safely Tuesday afternoon, authorities said.

Jordan Ramsey was taken from his home around 11:45 p.m. Monday by his babysitter, 32-year-old Brittany McCoy, Bartow County sheriff’s spokesman Maj. Jonathan Rogers said.

Ramsey and McCoy were found in Rockdale County after an Amber Alert was issued, Rogers said. He said the child is in good health and his parents were on their way to pick him up.

McCoy is in the custody of the Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office on unrelated charges, Rogers said. Bartow County investigators have charged McCoy with kidnapping, reckless conduct/endangerment, theft by taking (motor vehicle) and interference with child custody, authorities said.
