Surveillance footage released by the Merced County Sheriff’s Office Wednesday showed the armed kidnapping of a family of four — who are still missing two days after their abduction.
Authorities continued their desperate search Wednesday for 8-month-old Aroohi Dheri; her mother, Jasleen Kaur, 27; her father, Jasdeep Singh, 36; and her uncle, Amandeep Singh, 39, who were taken at gunpoint Monday from the family business in Merced, Calif., off South Highway 59, according to the Sheriff’s Office.
Suspect Jesus Manuel Salgado, 48, was arrested Tuesday after he attempted suicide in the nearby town of Atwater, but sheriff’s deputies cannot speak with him about the kidnapping because he is in critical condition in the hospital, Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke said.
“Time is of the essence,” Warnke said on Wednesday at a press conference asking the public for help in the search. “The big question and the first question is where is the family? One hundred percent of our energy is trying to get our family back.”
