No details were given about the death of the woman, who police identified as 20-year-old Pashun Jeffery. Jeffery’s body was found at Lincoln Shores Apartments, located at 11601 4th St. N, around 2:30 p.m., the release said.

Her missing son, Taylen Mosley, “could be in danger,” according to the release. An Amber Alert has been issued for the child and a search is underway.

An Amber Alert notification sent to mobile devices classified Taylen as a “Kidnapped Child.”

Jeffery’s family got worried because they hadn’t heard from her, so a family member came to check on the apartment Thursday afternoon and found her dead and her son missing, police said. They said neighbors told them they had heard some type of noise coming from the unit earlier, but it wasn’t “memorable enough” to call authorities.

Police described Jeffery’s death as a “very violent homicide.”

Significant law enforcement presence was seen at the complex. Outside Jeffery’s apartment, authorities examined a blue Nissan sedan. Officers unloaded the car’s contents and set up cones to mark possible evidence.

A bloodhound from the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office K-9 unit was brought to the scene to try to track the toddler. Police also are using drones and a helicopter in the search.

A group of narcotics officers also were seen at the apartment complex. They briefly examined a pond near Jeffery’s unit. A flatbed truck took a trash dumpster to be examined for possible evidence.
