Portland Police announced Tuesday that they have arrested a 17-year-old Honduran national in connection to the abduction of a 10-year-old child from Baltimore, Maryland.

The Portland Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division said it was contracted by the Baltimore Police Department in regards to the abducted child, who was taken from Baltimore and believed to be in Portland.

Portland Police worked with the Baltimore Police Department and the FBI in order to locate the 10-year-old, who has been successfully reunited with their parents.

In a Wednesday press release, Portland Police said that a 17-year-old “juvenile Honduran national” was charged in relation to the abduction.

The teen, who was not identified by name in the press release, is currently in the process of being extradited back to Baltimore to face potential adult charges related to the abduction.

Portland’s Criminal Investigation Division is continuing their investigation, which is expected to result in additional human trafficking-related charges.

According to Baltimore Police, the 10-year-old child went missing in Baltimore on Aug. 12, and was located on Aug. 14.
