They said Belay drives a dark-colored compact vehicle, which police believe she drove at the time of her disappearance.

While no foul play is suspected, authorities say they need to verify the well-being of the mother and child.

Court documents reportedly show Belay’s record consists of two felony charges, and, over the course of the past month, she allegedly tried to run over an officer, later being arrested for DWI, during which police said they found marijuana in her possession.

Authorities did not say if they believe the disappearance to be connected to the recent incident or charges against her.
