Police Say Infant Held Captive in Georgia Standoff
Mar 20th 2012, 01:55

SANDY SPRINGS, Georgia –  Police are negotiating with a gunman holding a seven-month-old infant captive at a standoff in a metro Atlanta apartment complex.

"The man is not cooperating as we had hoped he would," a police source said. A large contingent of S.W.A.T. was also called to the scene.

Sandy Springs Police Capt. Keith Zgonc said it wasn't clear what the child's relationship is to the suspect. The man, described as a black male in his 30's, does not live in the apartment, but indicated to police that the child does live there.

Police contacted the infant's mother, Lindsay Rogers, 27, at her place of work, but have not been able to find her. She is said to be driving a 2001 maroon Hyundai Elantra.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that the man pulled a gun in the leasing office of an apartment complex in Sandy Springs on Monday afternoon and then locked himself and an infant inside an apartment. The incident began around 9:45 a.m. when the suspect walked into the leasing office to complain something was wrong with his water.

Fox News' John Roberts and The Associated Press contributed reporting.
