The parents of a 2-year-old California boy missing since last week have "stopped cooperating" with police, authorities said Tuesday.
The Madera Police Department said it will keep investigating the disappearance of Thaddeus Sran despite the setback.
"Unfortunately, Thaddeus’ parents stopped cooperating early on in the investigation. We believe their assistance in this case would be helpful," the department said in a statement. "We are hopeful that they will resume cooperating with Madera Police Department detectives and help us to locate Thaddeus."

"Time isn't on our side right now," Madera Police Chief Lawson said. "It could be that he got out of the house, it could be that he was abducted. Everything is on the table. We're looking at everything and we're leaving no stone unturned."
The department said it has reached out to the FBI for assistance. Police said the parents had a daughter who died a few years ago, but officials did not provide further details, KFSN-TV reported.
