With their five kids in back, Benny Correa and his wife, Amanda Disley, decided to follow the suspected kidnapper
A brave Massachusetts couple sprung into action Wednesday evening after spotting a vehicle that matched the description of one police were looking for, and wound up helping authorities save an 11-year-old girl who’d allegedly been kidnapped at knifepoint.
The car’s windows were tinted and the rims were unique — like the ones they had seen on the news in reports of the afternoon abduction of Charlotte Moccia moments after she’d gotten off the bus from school in Springfield. So, they decided to follow the car — with their five kids seated behind them — and called 911.
“I cut off people and I got up close to the car,” Correa said. “I had to do what I had to do, being a father.” Miguel Rodriguez, 24, was the driver, and police took him into custody. A knife was recovered from the vehicle.Want to keep up with the latest crime coverage? Sign up forfor breaking crime news, ongoing trial coverage and details of intriguing unsolved cases.
