Kasai James Baines has been found, and police say he is okay

BEAUMONT, Texas — A missing 3-year-old boy, along with his father, have been located according to the Beaumont Police Department. 

(Editor's Note: The above video aired on Nov. 6, before the child was located)

Officers previously asked for the public's help to find Kasai James Baines, who they said may have been endangered according to a Facebook post. 

The post has since been updated with a new photo of the 3-year-old to let the community know he had been found and is okay. 

He had last been seen on Monday with his father Damaarkus J. Baines, police said. 

The father, who has a history of mental issues, was recently removed from his apartment at 1425 Washington Village Parkway according to the post. 

Officials said the incident did not qualify for an Amber Alert.
