ALLEN COUNTY, Ind. (WANE) — An Ohio man reportedly tied to a 3-year-old girl who had been missing out of Fort Wayne for roughly two months has been extradited to Allen County on a domestic battery charge.
Allen County Jail records show 31-year-old Shaquille Thomas arrived at the jail Tuesday.
Police in northeast Ohio arrested Thomas in early March after learning that he had reportedly assaulted his ex-girlfriend in Fort Wayne and had possibly returned to northeast Ohio, which is where he is from.
According to the Fort Wayne Police Department, the 3-year-old was abducted on Jan. 7, but a missing person’s report could not be officially filed until early March as officials and the ex-girlfriend worked to sort out custody issues.
