The father of a missing 5-year-old boy has been released from custody just three days after he was arrested on suspicion of child abduction and child endangerment, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department inmate information records show.
Aramazd Andressian Sr. is seen in a photo released April 22, 2017, by South Pasadena police.
Aramazd Andressian, 35, was released from jail about 3:25 p.m. Tuesday.
An attorney representing the family told KTLA he was released Andressian for insufficient evidence.
He was jailed after being questioned by authorities on Saturday, when he was found unresponsive outside his vehicle in Arroyo Park.
His son, Aramazd Andressian Jr. was last seen by his mother earlier that week during a Skype video chat. The boy was supposed to be dropped off by his father in Monrovia on Saturday, but he failed to show.
The pair were seen on video at Disneyland on the night of Thursday, April 20. They left the Anaheim theme park after midnight, a sheriff’s official told KTLA Monday.
Authorities were searching for clues of the missing boy Lake Cachuma in Santa Barbara County Tuesday but found no evidence that he was there.

Andressian Sr. has retained a criminal defense attorney, Daniel A. Nardoni of Pasadena, according to a statement from a family law attorney who represents Andressian Sr.
“Aramazd, his family and counsel are fully cooperating with the police in their efforts to locate little Ara,” said the statement, issued Tuesday afternoon by Lizarraga Law of Ojai.
The statement asked for privacy for the family, saying they are “emotionally reeling from the fact they have a missing 5 year old grandson/nephew, as well as a family member in custody.”
