Authorities have cleared the AMBER Alert for 10-month-old Leilani Williams from North Las Vegas. The Nevada State Police announced on their X page.


According to the North Las Vegas Police Department, the child was located unharmed, and Roderick was taken into custody by authorities without incident.



Authorities have issued an AMBER Alert for a 10-month-old girl from North Las Vegas, who may be with her father. 

The North Las Vegas Police Department says Leilani Williams was last seen near Martin Luther King Blvd. and Cheyenne Avenue around 1:40 a.m. on Thursday.
Leilani, who is also known as Leilani Duke, was last seen wearing a white jumper with pink trim and flowers.

Police say the girl is with 39-year-old Roderick Duke - he's 6'2" tall, 180 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Duke was last seen driving a blue 2017 Chrysler 200 with an unknown license plate.

Police say an AMBER Alert has been activated due to Roderick being in emotional crisis and making threats to harm himself and 10-month-old Leilani.

If you see them, call 911 or the North Las Vegas Police Department at 702-633-9111.
