Pinellas County, Florida – Law enforcement agencies across the state are looking for a 2-year-old boy after his mother was found dead in his St. Petersburg apartment on Thursday. WFLA reports.

An Amber Alert issued to Taylen Mosley at 5:39 p.m. Thursday said the boy was last seen on 4th Street North in St. Petersburg.

The boy’s mother, 20-year-old Pashun Jeffrey, was murdered at the Lincoln Shores Apartments on North Fourth Avenue, according to a WFLA report.
