Amber Alert issued for Kitsap County child

The Kitsap County Sheriff's Office has issued an Amber Alert in a case involving a mother who has disappeared with her 2-month-old daughter.

Police believe that the infant's life is in jeopardy, according to a news release.

The child, Serenity Withrow, was last seen in Poulsbo about 5 p.m. Wednesday. Her mother, 32-year-old Rebecca Forrester is believed to have taken the child.

Forrester has a history of drug use, according to court records, and is believed to be driving a 2001 Dodge Dakota pickup with license A02765P, according to the alert.

Serenity was removed from her mother's custody after the child was born in a private residence without medical attention, according to the sheriff's office.

Recently the child was returned to Forrester by order of a judge, but after that decision Forrester failed a urinalysis test. After the failed test Child Protective Services sought a court order to get Serenity back but Forrested and the child can't be located.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call detective Chad Birkenfeld during business hours at 360-337-7111. After hours call Kitsap County Central communications at 360-308-5400.
