Quick Glance: Alert issued for baby possibly with former police officer linked to 2 murders

Authorities in Washington state have issued an alert for a 1-year-old boy after a former police officer reportedly killed two women − his wife and ex-girlfriend − and allegedly kidnapped the baby.

West Richland is located in Benton County, approximately 35 miles north of the Oregon state line.
