BOULDER COUNTY, Colo. — A man who fled from a Boulder County home with a 5-year-old has been arrested on charges of kidnapping and child abuse.

On Tuesday around 10:45 a.m., the Boulder County Sheriff's Office learned from a family member that 33-year-old Nicholas Antley was forcibly taking a 5-year-old child from a home near the Crescent Meadows Trailhead in Golden. Antley did not have parental rights, the caller said.

Deputies responded to the street, which is in unincorporated Boulder County, but Antley had already left with the child.

The sheriff's office sent information about Antley's vehicle description to other law enforcement agencies.
