(TargetDailyNews.com) – A cadre of five illegal immigrants has been arrested and charged in the abduction of a teenage girl from Indiana. The girl was abducted from Cass County and was spotted entering a black Dodge Durango by her father who immediately reported her missing.
The Cass County Sheriff’s Office notified state troopers and was able to track the girl using her cell phone. They were able to locate her traveling west on U.S. 36 across Missouri.
A state trooper pulled the suspect vehicle over in Macon County and saw the young girl in the vehicle with the five suspects. The teenager identified herself and was immediately separated from the men. The trooper then secured the arrests of five men who turned out to be in the country illegally. They’ve been identified as follows: Daniel Ruiz Lopez, 19, from Mexico; Noe Guzman Hernandez, 24, from Mexico; Arturo Arteaga Eustaquio, 41, from Mexico; Marlon Pinda Aguilar, 44, from Honduras; and Carlos Onias Funez, 56, from Honduras.
Officials believe the men were transporting the girl to California with the potential of trafficking her. They’ve been charged with felonies for kidnapping as well as putting a child in danger.
