Chicago police searching for 2-year-old girl kidnapped by armed group from Bronzeville home
Chicago police are searching for a 2-year-old girl kidnapped from an apartment in the city's Bronzeville neighborhood by an armed group early Wednesday morning. Police said three people armed with guns forced their way into the building and then an apartment unit in the 4800 block of South Michigan Avenue just before 5 a.m. The group included a woman known to the child and two men, police said. They took the child before stealing a gray Nissan hatchback and other items from the home, and fled with the child in the stolen car. No Amber Alert has been issued at this time and CPD said the incident appears to be domestic. It is unclear if that determination is why an Ambert Alert has not been issued. An investigation by Area One detectives is ongoing.
