Houston agencies, FBI raid Southeast Houston home
Multiple Houston agencies showed up at a house on Harby Street in Southeast Houston around two in the morning on Wednesday. FOX 26's Abigail Dye reports more on what she's learned.
This started on March 27 when a woman walked into a Houston police precinct and told police that her boyfriend, William Manriquez, had been kidnapped.
She says he went to Mexico to visit a sick family member and crossed back over to the U.S. illegally and that was when he was kidnapped, along with three other immigrants.
The suspected kidnappers demanded $15,000 for the safe return of Manriquez and the three other immigrants and, if not, they would kill them.
On April 1, officers were able to trace the calls the kidnappers made to the victim's families to the Airbnb on Harby Street.
The FBI raided the home on April 3.
