Endangered Child Alert Issued for Missing Boy

Editor's Note: This story has been updated, according to Sacramento County Sheriff's spokesman, Jason Ramos.

Sacramento County Sheriff's and state officials have issued a statewide endangered child alert for a 6-year-old boy who was taken by his non-custodial mother Monday morning.

Raymond Peters has been classified as an at-risk child due to an asthma condition to which he does not possess medication for.

According to Sheriff's officials, the boy is described as white, 3-feet-9-inches tall, 45 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes.

Raymond's mother, 29-year-old Tricha Pelletier, was said to have taken the boy sometime around 12:01 Monday morning. Officials are describing Pelletier as white, 5-feet-6-inches tall, 124 pounds, with red hair and green eyes.

Peters was last seen Friday evening, August 19th, in the company of Pelletier.

Pelletier does not have legal custody of her son, and violated her court-ordered visitation rights when she neglected to return him to the custody of his father and grandmother on Sunday evening, August 21st.

Pelletier was driving an older model, white Chevrolet Blazer SUV. Sheriff's officials believe Pelletier may also be living out of the vehicle.

Anyone who has seen Raymond Peters, Pelletier or the suspect's vehicle is asked to contact the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department at (916) 874-5115.
