LAUDERDALE COUNTY, Ala. (TCD) -- Officials believe a 47-year-old man abducted his 78-year-old mother, and she could be "in danger of bodily harm or death."
According to a news release from the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office, on Nov. 3, Kristopher Moore, who was living in a camper behind his mother’s home, drove her to a bank in a borrowed car. Once there, his mother, Mary Ann Moore, reportedly "withdrew a large amount of money from her account."
The sheriff’s office alleges that they went back to her home after taking out the money. However, the next day at around 7 a.m., Kristopher Moore and his mother were missing, and family and friends have not seen them since. Authorities do not know what type of car they were driving.
According to the sheriff’s office, due to Kristopher Moore’s "recent erratic behavior," they believe his mother is in "extreme danger."
The statement called Kristopher Moore "violent and mentally unstable."
The sheriff’s office has asked anyone with information regarding their whereabouts to contact deputies or call 911.
Mary Ann Moore is around 5-foot-6, weighs 150 pounds, and has grayish hair. Her son is reportedly 5-foot-10, weighs 175 pounds, and has brown eyes and hair, as well as a Celtic cross tattoo on his chest.
