Kidnappings don’t often have happy endings. But a three-month-old baby abducted March 19 in León, Guanajuato, was discovered alive and well Sunday night.
Marco Iván Agustín Galindo was snatched from his mother’s arms by three men, one of them armed, in the Vibar neighborhood, a crime that subsequently provoked at least two protest marches by enraged mothers.
Twelve days after Marco Iván disappeared, three young men heard a cry as they walked past a pile of garbage on the sidewalk in the city’s Valle del Real neighborhood.
On top of the garbage and wrapped in blankets was a baby.
The authorities were notified and the infant was identified soon after as the missing youngster. Marco Iván was reunited the same evening with his parents, who had spent nearly two weeks in anguish over their lost son.
A medical examination found the baby was in good health and bore no signs of maltreatment by his captors.
