UPDATED 11.15am: Police say reports of a three-month old child being kidnapped in Hamilton are false.

Detective Inspector Gary Lendrum said police received information last night that a woman and her three-month-old child had been abducted.

As a result of some extensive police enquiries and the execution of search warrants in Waikato, it was discovered that the information passed to police was false. 

The woman and her child were located this morning in Auckland, safe and well and unaware of the situation or the search for them.

Two men and a woman are now assisting police with their enquiries, and Police cannot rule out the possibility of charges being laid.
