Police say the parents took 5-year-old Luis Ramirez and 7-month-old Kahmila Ramirez after they assaulted a caseworker during a supervised visit at a park near 29th and Kino.
The parents left in a green Toyota Camry with license plate number BKH8427. Police say the father tied a caseworker up to a tree and, along with his wife, took the two children.
The car has since been found in Nogales near the border, but the parents and children are still missing. Police say evidence found in the car suggests the father shaved his beard and or mustache, and everyone had changed clothes.
