An Amber Alert has been canceled after a 5-year-old boy was found safe Friday afternoon.

Authorities say little Domenic Smith was abducted by his father, 25-year-old Anthony Stanley Smith-Dixon, from a child care provider's home in San Jacinto Thursday night.

The Riverside County Sheriff's Department says the boy and his father were spotted shortly before 3 p.m. near Idyllwild. Smith-Dixon was arrested.

The sheriff's department says the father does not have custodial rights to the child, and the mother had also obtained a restraining order against Smith-Dixon.

The child has been reunited with his mother.
