Call the police!
Call the police is step #1. You should seek personal restraining orders through the family law court to protect you and your child. The police may be able to assist in the immediate return of the child to your care and may issue criminal protective orders if the father is arrested for his conduct in seizing the child. Both you and the child may need counseling to deal not only with this specific event but what seems to be a history of abusive conduct by the father.
The Contra Costa County courts will be closed a few weekdays due to the New Year holiday. I urge you to consult with an attorney to get all the information you need to protect you and your childs legal rights.
