MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — An Amber Alert was issued Wednesday morning for a missing baby in southwest Miami-Dade County who is only a week old.

The child, Andrew Caballeiro, was last seen at home in the Southwest 187th Ave., outside of the Miami city limits, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Three women were found dead at the same home on Tuesday.

Miami-Dade police said the baby might be in the company of his father, Ernesto Caballeiro, 49, though they didn't immediately call the man a suspect in the slayings.

He and the child may be traveling in a white 2001 Chevrolet Express with Florida tag number HETY13.

The vehicle has a decal of "Nesty School Services" on it. The vehicle is a passenger van. On the back left door, there is a decal of "Caution: Transporting Children."

Police advise that anyone who spots the vehicle should not approach it and instead contact 911.

Officials weren't immediately releasing the names of the three victims found at the residence. The father is related to at least one of the women.
