Baltimore police were asking for the public's help in locating a 29-year-old man accused of abducting two children from his girlfriend's home Friday morning in South Baltimore.

About 1 p.m., police said, they received a call from a woman in the 2400 block of Dorton Ct., in the Westport area, who said her boyfriend, Kwame Oseitutu, had abducted the couple's 3-year-old daughter, Akeelah, and the woman's 5-year-old girl, Emani, following a domestic dispute earlier in the day.

Police said Oseitutu has threatened to harm the 5-year-old girl, and homicide detectives are investigating. The homicide unit investigates all kidnapping cases. Police believe the girls may now be in the custody of a third party who is unaware of the circumstances.

Oseitutu resides in the 2400 block of Dorton Ct., and is described as a black male, 6-feet-tall, 200 pounds. Anyone with information is asked to call the homicide unit at 410-396-2100.
