An arrest warrant has been issued for Aaron Daniel Aung, 21, for custodial interference involving his missing daughter, Seraya Aung Harmon, who is only 2 years old. The Pullman Police Department reported that Aung violated a parenting plan established by a Latah County District Court, retaining custody of Seraya after their last sighting on May 29 during a fishing trip to Montana. The scheduled custody exchange with her mother in Pullman on June 3 did not occur, raising alarms about Seraya’s welfare. Aung is described as 5’ 9” tall, weighing approximately 135 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Authorities are also investigating the potential involvement of Nadia Cole, 21, a former Pullman resident who was reported missing just a day prior to Seraya's disappearance.

The community is urged to remain vigilant and report any information regarding Seraya's whereabouts. Prompt action and public assistance are deemed crucial in ensuring the child's safe return.
