Police find boy safe after amber alert

Queensland Police have found a missing toddler safe and well.

An amber alert was issued on Thursday after the boy was believed to have been taken from a house in Toowoomba, about 100km west of Brisbane.

Police had feared the 18-month-old boy may have been "at significant risk".

The amber alert was issued to try to find the boy and a woman who had been seen putting him into a car.

Queensland Police said just before 10.30pm that the child and woman had been found safe.

"Police would like to thank the media and the public for their assistance," they said.
