Girl kidnapped in 1991 surfaces

A woman who was snatched from a bus stop as an 11-year-old child in 1991 turned up at a California police station after 18 mysterious years. A convicted sex offender and his wife were arrested for the kidnapping.

Jaycee Lee Dugard was reunited with her mother, who was overjoyed to learn the daughter she feared dead was actually alive and well.


It was not immediately clear how Dugard spent the 18 years since she was abducted as a blond, ponytailed child outside her home.




He and his wife Nancy (54) were arrested for investigation of kidnapping and conspiracy on Wednesday, police said.

Garrido is also being held for investigation of rape by force, lewd and lascivious acts with a minor and sexual penetration.
