Father accused of abducting 3-year-old Millbrae girl
(KRON) — A San Francisco father is being held in jail with $5 million bail after he allegedly kidnapped his 3-year-old daughter in Millbrae and took her to Mexico.
Victor David Enriquez, 36, is scheduled to appear in court Thursday for a preliminary hearing in San Mateo County court.
On New Years Day in 2023, Enriquez went to his daughter's mother's home on Magnolia Avenue in Millbrae for one of his court-ordered visits. According to prosecutors, Enriquez was allowed to visit his daughter for two hours three times a week. The young girl lived full time with her mother, and her father did not have legal custody beyond visitation rights.
The father took his daughter and drove her from Millbrae to San Diego before they traveled into Mexico, prosecutors said.
After the girl went missing, San Mateo County Sheriff's Office investigators learned that the father had previously used the Internet to research 'child abduction,' the District Attorney's Office wrote. U.S. federal authorities worked together with Mexico City police to find the 3-year-old and her abductor.

Police found Enriquez and the girl at an airport in Mexico City and they arrested the father. Authorities returned the 3-year-old child to her mother in Millbrae and Enriquez was later extradited back to San Mateo County.
Prosecutors charged the father with violating a domestic violence restraining order and abducting a child without legal custody. He pleaded not guilty on April 14.
