Boy, 5, found with body of father in vacant home
A 5-year-old boy and the body of his father were found in a vacant house in Jessup, Howard County police said. A relative of the homeowner checking on the home Saturday found the boy and the body of his father, Najib Malik Abdulla, 26. Police said Abdulla and his son were last seen leaving another home Tuesday following a domestic dispute. No one has been living in the residence in the 8700 block of Mary Lane. It appears Abdulla entered the home by breaking a window, police said. It’s unclear when they entered the home. The cause of Abdulla’s death will be determined after an autopsy. The boy was taken to a hospital and in good condition.
