VANCOUVER, Wash. -- Clark County sheriff's deputies said Friday they're "very concerned" about the welfare of a missing 2-month-old child.

Andrew Christiansen was taken by his biological parents in the Vancouver area sometime after Sunday, but deputies said a court order mandates that Child Protective Services take the baby boy from his parents and place him into protective custody.

On Wednesday, police arrested the mother, Shondra Christiansen, in Springfield. The child was not with her at the time of her arrest and she is not cooperating with investigators, said Sgt. Scott Schanaker in a sheriff's office news release.

Deputies said they're trying to track down the father, 24-year-old Nicholas Christiansen. It's believed that he and the child are somewhere in the Eugene and Springfield area.

The court order that aims to take the baby boy into protective custody stems from concerns over the living environment at the Christiansen home, deputies said. Authorities also said there have been previous domestic violence issues between the Christiansens at their house.

Shondra Christiansen remains in the Lane County Jail. Anyone with information on the location of Nicholas and Andrew Christiansen is asked to call 1-877-274-6311.

Nicholas Christiansen is described as white, 5 feet 7 inches tall and 190 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes.

Please remove the picture that purports to be of Andrew Christiansen. It is not. I don't know who pulled that photo from a myspace page, but they should be fired for getting that picture all over the news. I only hope that the real - and very good - parents of that child don't find themselves accosted due to such poor journalism.

Please also add to the story that the authorities are not worried that Nick will hurt his baby. You might notice there is no Amber Alert on this case.

Leaving with his baby was a stupid, immature thing to do and I hope this gets wrapped up quickly. But Andrew is not in danger. I'm sure you'll be relieved to hear that.
