Amber Alert kidnapping turns out to be a hoax

ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) - The reported kidnapping last night in Wheaton that led police to issue an Amber Alert turned out to be a hoax.

Montgomery County Police say Sara Hernandez-Torres made up a story in which she claimed her supposed former boyfriend abducted her and her five-year-old son from a Wheaton Metro stop last night. Police say she wanted to hide her ongoing romance with the boyfriend from her family.

Hernandez-Torres called her family from a cell phone around 6 p.m. to tell them that Carlos Delcid had kidnapped the pair. The family called the police, who issued the Amber Alert.

A Rockville city worker saw Delcid’s truck parked at a home on Twinbrook Parkway this morning. Police found Hernandez-Torres and her son there, unharmed, and took Delcid into custody.

But after questioning, Hernandez-Torres admitted she made the story up. Charges will likely be filed against her for making a false report. Delcid does not face any charges.

What is it about women making up stories about abductions?

Technically, wasn’t it her family that reported her to the police as kidnapped?

Besides, if she’s an adult, can’t she just say, “Screw you, mom & dad!  He’s my boyfriend and I TOTALLY love him!”

Yeah, like wtf? Why wouldn’t she just tell them straight up? Maybe the father AND mother were abusive, or the girl was mentally ill.

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the still waters
He restoreth my soul

He leadeth me
in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake
Yea, though I wal through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, for thou art with me
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me

Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies
