SUMMARY:
On Thursday, August 14, 2025, at 7:47 p.m., deputies in Yucaipa were dispatched to a retail business after Rebecca Haro reported that while she stood outside her vehicle, changing her child’s diaper, she was physically assaulted by an unknown male and rendered unconscious. When she awoke, her 7-month-old infant, Emmanuel Haro, was gone. Deputies and K9 Units from San Bernardino and Riverside Counties responded and began an extensive search. Emmanuel was not located.
Based on the circumstances, Sheriff’s Specialized Investigations Division responded and assisted with the investigation. Investigators interviewed multiple individuals, including Emmanuel’s parents Jake and Rebecca Haro. During those interviews, Rebecca was confronted with inconsistencies in her initial statement and declined to continue with the interview. At this point in the investigation, investigators are unable to rule out foul play in the disappearance of Emmanuel.
Investigators will continue their investigation to locate Emmanuel Haro.
