night. the relatives of the man in the apartment where the baby was found, there's word of a pregnancy shaped a possible motive. good evening, everyone. we continue our live team coverage tonight of the king of prussia kidnapping case. george spencer looks into a delay in the amber alert after the baby was kidnapped last night but we begin with randy gyllenhaal live at the king of prussia mall with the latest on a possible motive. randy, the question of why remains unanswered. >> reporter: jim, this suspect told police she did not go to the mall intending on kidnapping a child but cops do say she was caught on surveillance video leaving the property holding a baby that was not her own. 7-week-old asir simmons is back in his mother's arms. the infant was kidnapped at king of prussia mall.

>> why? why my child? why anybody's child? how could you do something so hurtful and evil? >> reporter: that is the question that's even puzzling detectives. why would moore, the daughter of a prominent political leader, allegedly steal a random baby? police say she walked out of the mall holding the stolen child and brought him to this house. friends say the man who lives here had a relationship with the suspect. declined comment to the cameras tonight but his family says he had no idea about the plot. >> all he know is when he got home from work and he didn't know anything -- >> reporter: saw the baby there? >> yeah. from what i understand. she was there, too. >> reporter: police rescued the baby from the home and they have some clues on a motive. the alleged kidnapper telling detectives she'd been pregnant. she even had a baby registry listed online and police are now looking up her medical records.

>> she said she gave birth on february 11th which died a few hours later. we have not been able to confirm any of that story. >> reporter: now, she is the daughter of renee moore, the deputy chair of the pennsylvania republican party, the family did issue a statement tonight saying they're focused on did daughter's health and wellness and asking for privacy. live, randy gyllenhaal, nbc 10 news. all right. we are looking at the delay in the kidnapping case. many of you watched the investigation unfolding realtime first on tv and through nbc 10 social media accounts but for most smartphone users, the amber alert notification did not pop up for four hours after the baby was taken. nbc 10's george spencer has been digging into that lag time tonight. and he's joining us live in the digital oerngss center with more. george? >> reporter: jim, we found that

getting an amber alert to the cell phone is at least a three-step process and the state of pennsylvania local authorities notified the state police, the state police then notify the national center for missing children and then that group is the group that sends the alerts to the phones from washington, d.c. as patrol cars descended on the king of prussia mall, time was of the essence. police responded at 5:43 yesterday evening and upper marion's police chief told us word spread almost immediately. >> an amber alert did go out minutes after the abduction. >> reporter: the iphone time stamp shows it wasn't received until 9:36 last night, and nbc 10 executive producer recorded this video when he received the alert two minutes after that. so, why the four-hour delay? to issue an amber alert, law enforcement must believe an

abduction occurred and believe the child under 17 is in imminent danger. they need enough descriptive information to assist in the recovery of that child. chief noland said today the criteria were quickly met at least locally. >> i note that the amber alert through the police department out to all surrounding jurisdictions in montgomery county in the first few minutes. >> reporter: to get an alert to the cell phone is more cumbersome. police have to notify state police. state police say the watch center first contacted 7:45 last night but it took an hour to obtain appropriate information and pictures and their amber activation occurred 8:48 p.m. state police notified the national center down in washington, d.c. that's the agency that pushes the button to send cell phone alerts, bouncing them to every phone near the impacted cell

towers. that cellular process can take 15 to 30 minutes on a good day. last night it seems the process took about 45 minutes. so there are still questions. we spoke to the director of that national center tonight who outlined the standard protocols and did not have specific information about last night's case saying he's pleased by the attention the public is giving the amber alert system and said it's one investigative tool. live in the digital operations center, george spencer, nbc 10 news. breaking news out of camden county right now. a pedestrian's killed. marlton pike near route 38. the vehicle involved did stay on the scene. now to a developing story in philadelphia's nice town neighborhood. firefighters found a woman's body after the fire in a home.
