Perez was taken by armed intruders to her home in Ellenwood, Georgia, just south of Atlanta at around 2:15 a.m. on the morning of September 17. It’s alleged that when the would-be robbers found no valuables in the home they took the girl, in addition to shooting and killing her family’s dog.
Perez is reported to have been found in Conyers, Georgia, approximately 25 miles from her home in Ellenwood.
Two suspects are in custody for the kidnapping:
