Thread: Illegals in Attempted Kidnapping in Miami

I found this link on a blog about day laborers. This disguists me as now they are attempting to commit the crimes that happened in their homelands. Kidnapping is common in many South and Central American countries. I found another TV station report and saw that these illegals got out on bond. WHY????

KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. -- The victim of an attempted kidnapping while jogging spoke out Wednesday night.

"I was yelling and saying, 'No, please. I have my baby. I have my baby," she said.


The victim, who did not want to be identified, is a mother of four.

She was jogging on the Rickenbacker Causeway on Key Biscayne, a daily routine, when she said four men drove up in a sport utility vehicle and tried to kidnap her.

"She first tried to ignore them," Detective Delrish Moss with Miami police said. "But then they were a little bit more aggressive and they repeated the demand for her to get in."

A Miami-Dade County police officer in the area saw what was going on.

"At that moment, I kneeled down," the victim said. "I saw them run to their car and I told the officer, 'Thank you, sir. You were sent from Heaven.'"

"If it wasn't for that Miami-Dade police officer, she could be somewhere dead right now," Moss said.

Police found and arrested the four men: Nelsin Escobar, Jose Manuel Nunez, Albert Alvarez and Allan Soriano-Lopez.

Police said they found rope and duct tape in their SUV.

The first three arrested suspects face attempted armed kidnapping charges. They are being held for immigration.

Soriano-Lopez, 19, is being held for criminal deportation. However, police said they suspect he was also in the car.

Police said they were most concerned about scratches found on Escobar's face.

"These scratches are consistent with a victim, someone struggling with him," Moss said. "That's probably a victim that's out there that we don't know exists, we don't know where she is and we don't know what's happened to her."

The jogging victim said she hopes her story saves other women.

"Perhaps this is why I was saved," she said. "To talk about this. I think everyone should talk, because there could be other victims."

Anyone who believes they have been victimized by the suspects should call Miami-Dade County CrimeStoppers at 305-471-TIPS.

KEY BISCAYNE (WSVN) -- Police have arrested three suspects accused of attempting to kidnap a woman jogging in Key Biscayne.

Four men tried to kidnap, a 41-year-old Miami resident during her daily jog on Monday morning around 5 a.m. on the Rickenbacker Causeway. The woman said the men in a 1999 Ford Explorer were following her and telling her in Spanish to get inside the car. The victim said she ignored them, but they continued to follow and ordered her to get in or they would shoot her. She began running and yelling for help when a Miami Police officer drove up, scaring the men away.

Key Biscayne Police found and arrested them less than an hour later. Inside the van, police found duct tape, rope, fake IDs, and condoms.

Authorities took Jose Manuel Nuñez, 21, Nelsin Escobar, 20, and Alberto Aquino Alvarez, 21, and Allan Soriano-Lopez, 19, into custody. All except Soriano-Lopez remain behind bars because the victim was unable to identify him as one of the suspects. All of the suspects are illegal aliens and have received bond between $10,000 and $20,000 each.

Police say some of them men had scratches on their face, which lead them to believe there may be other victims out there. They ask anyone who believes these men are behind similar attacks call Miami-Dade County Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-TIPS. Remember, you can always remain anonymous, and you may be eligible for a reward.
