Dad accused of abandoning girl may have left her in trash can: DCFS

Preliminary results of a child welfare investigation have led investigators to believe that the father of a 3-year-old girl found wandering the streets alone near a suburban forest preserve earlier this week had left her in a trash can, authorities said Thursday.

“Initially, our investigation has shown that the father left the child in a garbage can and drove away,” said Andrew Flach, spokesman for the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services.

As the DCFS investigation continues, Cook County authorities moved forward on the criminal investigation, issuing an arrest warrant Thursday for the girl’s father, Faiz Ikramulla.

Ikramulla, 35, was named in a $300,000 arrest warrant for aggravated kidnapping, according to the Cook County Sheriff's office.

The little girl was found alone and crying on Tuesday near a forest preserve in suburban Prospect Heights, police said. The Van Buren County Sheriff’s Office in Michigan took Ikramulla into custody on Wednesday after officials there learned that he was wanted in Illinois.

“I don’t know whether he was fleeing or not,” said Cook County Sheriff spokeswoman Cara Smith. “It appears so, from where he ended up.”
