An Amber Alert for a baby boy in Saskatchewan has been cancelled after police say the infant was found and appears safe.

RCMP initially said a five-day-old baby boy had been taken from a health clinic in Montreal Lake.

They later said he had actually been taken from a residence in the community, roughly 100 kilometres north of Prince Albert.

Police say the baby had been taken by his father.

They say the father turned himself in without incident at the Big River RCMP detachment, shortly after the Amber Alert was issued in the late afternoon.

RCMP say the boy was assessed by emergency medical services as a precaution.
