Federal authorities have arrested and charged three illegal immigrant
suspects in connection with the kidnapping of a mother and her
13-month-old baby from their home in Garner, North Carolina, on April
28.
Garner officials charged Eleodoro "Leo" Estrada-Hernandez, 37; Paola
Duran Duran, 25; and Miguel Angel Duran Duran, 23, with two counts of first-degree kidnapping and one count of second-degree kidnapping each. Estrada-Hernandez is also facing charges of felony firearm possession
and two counts of assault by pointing a firearm.
"When our partners at the Garner Police Department requested FBI
assistance with a kidnapping, we surged resources from across the state
in the middle of the night," Robert M. DeWitt, the FBI special agent in
charge in North Carolina, said in a Wednesday statement. "Alongside
local and state partners, a fast-moving and complex case unfolded.
Through the combination of investigative technology, tactics, and tools, thankfully, the victims were recovered safely."
The woman, baby and the woman's husband were unloading groceries on the
evening of the alleged kidnapping and saw the same black Nissan Altima
drive by their house multiple times, court records state.
Once the family was inside their residence, they heard a knock at the
door and opened it to reveal a woman, later identified as Paola, who
asked for a woman named "Maria." The victims told her there was no woman
named Maria at the residence, at which point Miguel and Hernandez, both
wearing ski masks, allegedly forced entry into the house.
They overpowered the victim's husband, duct-taped his hands behind his
back and covered his eyes and mouth, at which point they demanded he pay
$1 million, according to Justice Department documents.

Miguel and Paola then allegedly forced the woman and her baby out the
back door of the home and into the black Nissan Altima, while Hernandez
left a short time later when a different vehicle picked him up from the
scene.
