Missing Boy's Father Arrested on Suspicion of Murder

The father of a 5-year-old California boy who has been missing for over two months was arrested Friday on suspicion of murder. The LA Times reports that Aramazd Andressian Senior was taken into custody in Las Vegas, where he is being held on $10 million bail until he is moved to LA County. Detectives initially detained Andressian when his son went missing in April, but he was eventually released. The search began when the boy's mother told police that they never came back to her. Later that day, police located the father in the hospital after he'd been discovered unconscious in or near his car in a Pasadena park. He told authorities he'd taken prescription pills, and the car had been doused in gasoline. "I can only speculate that I must have been attacked," he said afterward.
