Mother rescues kids from kidnapping
A quick acting mom in South Salt Lake rescued her daughter and nephew from the home of her neighbor, who has been accused of kidnapping the children.
Earlier that day, neighbor David Bell had been at her house for the family’s Fourth of July party. “He kind of just came over and just kind of wanted to hang out. We didn’t have a problem with that. He seemed pretty nice,” the mother said.
Court documents say in the early morning hours, as the children slept, Bell took the woman’s 2-year-old daughter and 4-year-old nephew. The woman says her 4-year-old daughter saw it happen and, thinking it was a bad dream, began to cry. That alerted her mother.
“I noticed my 2-year-old missing, so I searched the whole house. I guess by instinct, I just went directly over to the neighbor’s house and found the children and him and his partner in the bedroom,” the mother said.
