Investigation into abducted twin newborns, 4 arrests announced by Livonia police

FOX 2 (WJBK) - Four arrests have been made in connection to the kidnapping of the newborn twins in a case that sparked an Amber Alert early Monday morning.

Livonia police announced just before 7 p.m. that three additional suspects were taken into custody in the abduction of Montana and Matthew Bridges from a hotel, sparking an early morning Amber Alert. 

The 14-day-old twins were recovered in Detroit after they were taken from a hotel where their family was living. 

But the suspected motive has not been released by investigators yet. The twins, Montana and Matthew Bridges, were living with their mom and dad in a Livonia hotel.

It all started when their mom reached out on Facebook, looking for a little help, caretaking for her babies, needing diapers and that kind of thing. And there were two women that answered that call to help.

"A lady reached out to my daughter on Facebook saying that she could help my daughter with diapers," said Lolita Vann, their grandmother. "She needed a place to stay different type of resources because she was a new mom. And this same mom is who I believe if from what I'm hearing from her children's father, is that this is the same woman that has abducted my grandchildren."

Now apparently, the mom left the hotel room for a couple of minutes in the care of those two women when she returned, the twins were gone. That is the theory of the family, again, not quite corroborated by police at this point.

Now those twins were gone for just about 12 hours prompting that Amber Alert and really a frantic search. It all ended Monday morning when two people walked into the Detroit Police ninth precinct handing over the twins unharmed.

The best news is that we had to report that these twins are okay they're back in the care of mom and dad at this point. 
 

The family was staying at the hotel because their west side Detroit home had been broken into.
