A 1-year-old girl was found safe in Montclair after authorities said she was abducted by her father in Rancho Cucamonga, prompting an Amber Alert, authorities announced Tuesday morning.

Authorities said Daniel Segura was taken into custody without incident and Lexi Segura was safe. The child was being reunited with her mother.
"They were following up on leads and in a number of different locations based on information they had gathered overnight and in this particular area it obviously paid off," Cindy Bachman with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said.
Daniel Segura had threatened to commit "suicide by cop," investigators said. He and his estranged wife, who is Lexi's mother, were at a home in Rancho Cucamonga when they got into an argument.
Daniel Segura then allegedly pulled out a gun and kidnapped the young girl.
Due to the vehicle being recovered, authorities rescinded the official Amber Alert but had emphasized that their investigation was no less urgent.
Daniel Segura was to be booked for child abduction, according to officials.
