Alabama man to face charge of kidnapping teen girl in Springfield
An Alabama man is in custody in Springfield, charged with kidnapping a 13-year-old girl from a Springfield home in late July.
Springfield Police Department spokesperson Ryan Walsh said 31-year-old Paul Areliano was arrested in Front Royal, Virginia, where he was being held on a fugitive from justice warrant pending rendition to Massachusetts. On Tuesday, Springfield detectives flew to Virginia to bring Areliano back to face a single count of kidnapping.
Walsh said the girl remained in the custody of Virginia authorities after Areliano was arrested. He said while the girl spends summers in Springfield, she also lives in Alabama.
