China News Service, February 8th. According to the US "World Journal" report, on the evening of February 6, local time, a Chinese child was kidnapped in San Francisco.
In a robbery case, two Chinese children were driven away by the suspect because they were sitting in a car.
Law enforcement agencies in the Bay Area issued an "Amber Alert" to all citizens, citing social media discussions, and the police also issued search and search messages.
About four hours later, at about 1:00 in the morning, the police found two children. When they were found, they were fine and returned safely to their Chinese fathers.
No one has been arrested yet.
The time of the incident was around 9 pm on the 6th.
At that time, the father of two children was driving in a certain area of San Francisco to deliver meals, and the two children were sitting in the car.
When my father got off the car to deliver the meal, he did not pull out the car key.
About a minute later, the father who delivered the meal saw someone sitting in his car. He immediately stopped to drink, and was robbed of his phone during the scuffle.
In a hurry, he rushed to grab the phone, and when he looked back, he found that his car had been driven away.
In the car were his two children who could hardly speak English. His daughter was four years old and his son was one year old.
After the incident, his father was interviewed by the TV station and said in a crying voice that he hoped the robbers would not harm his children, which caused heated discussions for a while.
Nearly 11 o'clock, the police and the California Highway Patrol (CHP) jointly issued a "Child Missing Alert", and most people in the Bay Area received the alert on their mobile phones.
People share a lot of tracing news on social media, hoping to find the vehicle involved as soon as possible.
Until 1 am, the police found the stolen vehicle in the San Francisco Bay Scenic Area, and the two children were found safely. It is reported that there is no serious problem.
Then the "Child Missing Alert" was lifted.
Currently, the police have not released information on the suspects and arrests.
After the child was found, the father said in an interview that he and his wife were waiting for news from their children, as if they were in a "nightmare", every minute and every second was as long as years.
"I am very happy that the children were found," he said, and thanked everyone for their support and help on social media.
