North Carolina authorities reported on Friday the detention of a third individual involved in the kidnapping incident that took place on Monday, involving a mother and her young daughter from a residence in Garner.

Earlier this week, Garner officials had already charged two undocumented immigrants, Paola Duran Duran, aged 25, and Miguel Angel Duran Duran, aged 23, with two counts of first-degree kidnapping, along with another count of second-degree kidnapping.

A manhunt ensued for a third suspect, Eleodoro “Leo” Estrada-Hernandez, before authorities located and arrested him on Friday.

“The FBI has apprehended Eleodoro ‘Leo’ Estrada-Hernandez in relation to the abduction of the young mother and her child,” announced the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation (NC SBI) on Friday. “Hernandez was detained by FBI Special Agents located in Knightdale.”

ICE detainers have reportedly been lodged against Paola and Miguel, according to WNCN. Estrada-Hernandez’s immigration status is unknown. 

ICE did not immediately respond to a request from Fox News Digital for more information about the suspects.

Multiple state, local and federal agencies were involved in the search for all three suspects.
