A desperate search is underway after a four-day-old baby went missing in the early hours today from the room where his mother and father were sleeping.
The newborn's mother called 911 after waking at 4.30am on Thursday to find her son Kayden Powell missing from his bassinet in a room where she was sleeping at a home in the Town of Beloit, Wisconsin.
The 18-year-old mother, Brianna Marshall, and the infant's 23-year-old father, Bruce Powell, were staying at the house, said town police chief Steven Kopp.

Police reported on Thursday afternoon that a person of interest had been arrested in Iowa. That person is believed to be a relative. Baby Kayden has still not been found.
The officer said that there were no signs of a break-in at the home and police said it was being processed as a crime scene.
No one in or around the home reported anything suspicious, according to police reports.
The mother, who just turned 18, and father were at the police station waiting to be interviewed along with the mother's brother and a friend. They were all at the house on Wednesday night.
The homeowner of the property where the family were staying is listed as 46-year-old Mark Bennett who has a history of arrests for battery and criminal misdemeanors.
The FBI and Wisconsin Department of Justice are helping local authorities in the search in Rock County.
The 18-year-old mother, Brianna Marshall, and the infant's 23-year-old father, Bruce Powell were in the house at the time of the child's disappearance

The Rock County Sheriff's Office had provided 16 staff at the scene, including all members of its detective bureau and its special investigations unit.
Kopp says the incident is not believed to be a custody dispute. The chief says an Amber Alert was not issued because the disappearance doesn't meet the criteria.
An Amber Alert is only issued if the child is at risk of serious injury or death and there is sufficient descriptive information of child, captor or captor's vehicle.
The baby was born at Beloit Memorial Hospital. He is African-American, 20 inches long, 6 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, according to police.
