AMBER Alert issued for infant boys abducted from Livonia
An AMBER Alert is in effect for two 3-week-old boys after they were abducted in Livonia. Montana Alexander Bridges and Matthew Jace Bridges may be with two Black females who are in a black Jeep Cherokee with chrome trim around the passenger window.
Vann said that she believes the woman who reached out to help kidnapped her grandsons, based on what she has heard from the children's father.
"She came to the hotel last night to give my daughter some gift cards to buy diapers, formula, things of that nature. My daughter went downstairs to get something from the vending machine, came back and the children were gone," she said.
Livonia police said the boys' mother had left the boys with "friendly acquaintances."
