Authorities canceled an Amber Alert for a 1-month-old Georgia girl believed to have been abducted Sunday.

The child was allegedly taken from her home in Johns Creek by her 29-year-old non-custodial father, Jamale Simpson, the GBI said in the alert, also known as a Levi’s Call in Georgia.

On Sunday night, police confirmed that she was safely returned to her home, located near Old Alabama Sydney Marcus Boulevard and Ga. 400.

According to Channel 2 Action News, Simpson gave the child to a family member, who took her home. The father remains at large, the news station reported.

They had been last seen traveling in a 2013 dark blue Jeep Grand Cherokee. Anyone with more information is asked to contact Johns Creek police at 470-456-0271.
