Nine Month Old Kidnapped in Second Local Attack
A nine month old boy was abducted and assaulted in his home half a mile from where he lived. Police questioned a man about two years old, but did not release his name. The attack follows another assault on Robbie Holliday, age three, in the same area a month earlier. The intruder forced entry through a screen door and moved through a storeroom into the bedroom where the couple slept beside the crib. The distraught father described covering the baby around 11 30 p m and waking to find the child missing about an hour later. Police conducted a quick house search and investigations continue.
