Mariah was last seen in Baltimore, Maryland at 1:00 p.m. on September 3, 1993. Her mother stated they were at the Erdman Shopping Center parking lot in the 3900 block of Erdman Avenue, near their home, when a strange man shoved her aside and grabbed Mariah out of the car. He ran away with the baby while her mother went to her house to call police. Mariah has never been seen from again.
