Four arrested in Siler City abduction of 2-year-old boy

Oct 2, 2006 : 6:20 pm ET

SILER CITY, N.C. -- Four people have been arrested in the disappearance of 2-year-old Edwin Sanchez Gonzales, who is believed to have been taken from his Chatham County home by his father, authorities said Monday.

Marcelino Zamudio Tomas, 28, and Lorenzo Gonzales Coria, 18, the mother's brother, each were charged with first-degree burglary and first-degree kidnapping and jailed under a $500,000 bond, said Maj. Gary Blankenship of the Chatham County Sheriff's Department. Both of them live in Siler City.

The boy and his father, Jorge Sanchez Aguilera, still haven't been found.

The child was taken from his mother's home about 2 a.m. Sunday after the father and three other men broke in, the sheriff's department said. Adults were tied up with duct tape and the intruders threatened to kill them if they didn't turn over the child, Blankenship said.

Francisco Rodriguez, 23, of Siler City, was charged with possession of a stolen firearm and is wanted by immigration agents. Elvis Nino Hernandez was arrested on a immigration detainer while driving an SUV believed to be the vehicle used in the abduction.

The mother told WRAL-TV that the boy was taken because the father was angry about not getting custody of the child.

Police said the father is considered armed and dangerous. He is 5-foot-6 and weighs about 145 pounds. The child is about 25 pounds and has black hair. He last was seen in a T-shirt and a diaper.
