TSAYATOH, New Mexico — The Navajo Division of Public Safety issued an AMBER alert Thursday for four missing children out of New Mexico.
In the photo above, the children are from left to right:
- Turquoise Sky Peshlakai, 10 years old
- Rain Cloud Peshlakai, 2 years old
- Rumaldo Peshlakai, Jr., 7 years old

The children are believed to have been taken by their father, Rumaldo Peshlakai. He is about 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighs about 210 pounds. The photo above is not current, he currently has a bald head and goatee.
Officials report the Navajo Police Department received a call involving a domestic violence incident with Peshlakai. He took the children in a maroon Yukon and made statements to harm the children, officials say.
The vehicle was found abandoned. Officials now believe Peshlakai and the children are on foot in the area.
A multi-agency search is currently being conducted in Tsayatoh, New Mexico, in partnership with state, county, and federal agencies.
