DEER PARK, N.Y. (AP) - Police say a man who left his unlocked car in a Long Island parking lot with his 8-year-old daughter inside returned to find both gone.
Authorities say the child was dropped off in a nearby town and the suspect fled in the white 2007 Honda Acura stolen early Friday outside a 7-Eleven in Deer Park.
The girl was found later Friday morning in the parking lot of a bagel shop in West Islip, unharmed.
Police are still looking for the suspect, who appears on a security videotape of the Deer Park lot leaving his red van, entering the Honda and driving off.
The names of the child and her father were not released.
