Texas Authorities Arrest Suspect After AMBER Alert for Abducted 13-Year-Old from Louisiana
A 13-year-old girl, who was allegedly abducted from Keithville, Louisiana, was found safe in North Texas, according to the Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office. The girl was reported missing on May 7 and was believed to be with an 18-year-old suspect, Daniel Vasquez Mejia. Authorities issued an AMBER Alert after learning the suspect's vehicle, a 2008 white Chevrolet Tahoe, might be headed to Texas. The Collin County Sheriff's Office arrested Vasquez Mejia on charges of harboring a runaway, and a warrant for simple kidnapping under Louisiana law has been obtained. The girl is now in the custody of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, which is arranging her return to her family. The investigation is ongoing, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been notified due to the interstate nature of the offense.
