Amber Alert in Arlington, Ma... solved

OH, EIGHT! - Arlington, MA - The Arlington Advocate:

Amber Alert
Arlington raised an Amber Alert for the first time ever, because an Arlington couple disappeared with their 6-month-old son, Lucas Whalen.

Michael Whalen, 42, and Danielle Boyle, 24, refused to comply with a probate court order to hand over their son to Boyle’s aunt, and Whalen allegedly threatened to shoot himself, his child, and anyone who tried to get in their way.

Boyle and the baby arrived at the Arlington Community Safety Building within hours of the alert, because she did not have money to pay the fare of a taxi she was riding in. Whalen was arrested by a SWAT team early the next morning at a Burlington hotel. In July, Whalen pleaded guilty to parental kidnapping and threats.

Boston Amber Alert cancelled boy found safe and sound...

Boston police have found the 9-year-old boy apparently kidnapped at gunpoint earlier this afternoon from River Street in Mattapan.

Police say he is “safe and sound,” however they are still looking for two suspects.

David Encarnacion, 9, had been last seen at 437 River Street wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt. Police have yet to reveal details about his rescue, but one report has him found near Logan Airport.

A preliminary report suggests the boy was abducted during the course of an armed robbery, but investigators ran into a roadblock with a witness who could not speak English.

A “victim/witness” tells Boston police that he and the boy were “approached by two suspects at approximately 1:56 p.m. The two suspects then fled with the 9-year-old boy in the victim’s vehicle,” police report.
