Original story

A Levi’s Call has been issued by the Duluth Police Department for two brothers believed taken by their father.

Zailan Blue, 10, and Jaquez Z. Blue, 14, were allegedly abducted by their father, John Daniel Blue, according to the Levi’s Call alert posted on GAB AlertNet.

Police say the boys were taken at 10:34 a.m. Thursday, June 12, and were last seen at 618 Bedfort Drive in Duluth.

They are believed to be driving in a blue 2000 Chevrolet Venture van, GA license tag PIQ9426. The van was last seen on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard.

WSB reported a Department of Family and Children’s Services worker was going to the Bedfort address Thursday to serve a deprivation order on the father, who apparently saw the worker approach and loaded the boys in the van.
