Police stopped a black Nissan Altima at Route 1 and I-76 in Philadelphia just before 8:00 a.m. Friday morning. Inside were the two children, 3-year-old Erielys Ahorrio and 4-year-old John Ahorrio, and the two suspects, 23-year-old Eddie Ahorrio, Jr. and his 47-year-old father, Eddie Ahorrio, Sr. The children were taken by gunpoint at 7:30 p.m. Thursday from a home on Almanac Avenue in Lancaster City. The suspects were their father and grandfather. The children were taken during an argument.
