Articles labeled: abducted infant in car trunk

A baby reported missing early this morning has been found, in the trunk of a car of all places.

The child’s mother, Asia C. Sterrett, 20, told police that she had about five friends at the apartment when she noticed that her son was missing at about 1:40 a.m. After searching the apartment, Sterrett called 911 at 2:14 a.m.

“There were a number of individuals partying at the apartment. I believe there was some alcohol, maybe some marijuana had been mentioned also,” Gardner Police Chief Neil Erickson said.

Using bloodhounds, local and state police scoured the apartment complex looking for the baby and interviewed Sterrett’s friends.

“As a result of those interviews, a suspect was identified as Jason Bisceglia, 19, of 44 Linwood St. in Gardner,” Worcester County District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr. said.
