DANGER: Cops believe Samantha poses a 'risk of harm' to the kids

Last weekend cops released CCTV footage showing the mum leading her kids away by the hand.

Officers believe Samantha poses a “risk of harm” and urged her to contact them "urgently".

A missing persons appeal was launched on Tuesday after she vanished.

But yesterday police launched a fresh appeal after earlier announcing that the investigation had become an abduction inquiry.

Two women, 36 and 62, have been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. They remain in custody.

Detective Superintendent Helen Chamberlain said she understood it was a "very difficult time" for Miss Baldwin.

She said: "I cannot imagine what you are going through and what you are thinking at this time.

"And as a mother of a child of a similar age, I cannot begin to imagine what is happening in your mind.

"I can only empathise with you."
