Chowchilla Kidnap Case Spurs Composite Suspect Drawings
In Chowchilla California a group of 26 children and their driver were abducted at gunpoint from a school trip, driven 100 miles to a quarry near Liver more, and forced into an underground bunker. They escaped Friday night as three masked men left. Authorities released composite drawings and license details while pursuing three suspects. The FBI withdrew citing jurisdiction limits, prompting criticism from local officials. Investigators described three abductors including a tall man with grey hair and eagle tattoo, a shorter man with a chipped tooth, and a younger man with blue eyes and brown hair. Regulators traced two green and white vans, one registered under a false name in San Jose. The case remains active with renewed efforts to locate all vehicles and suspects.
