The search for a missing 1‑year-old girl from Ansonia continued Thursday as the girl’s father was held in jail in New Haven after an arrest on weapons charges.
The arrest was made after Ansonia police served a search and seizure warrant on the man’s residence in New Haven’s Fair Haven Heights neighborhood.
Police conducted the New Haven search in connection to “an ongoing Ansonia homicide investigation,” according to an incident report written by New Haven Detective Elizabeth White. The Ansonia police are currently investigating the homicide of a woman thought to be the 1‑year-old girl’s mother.
