SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Police in California say a car dealer who repossessed a San Jose woman's Honda Accord left with something a bit more valuable: her 2-year-old son.
The child, Cyrus Lopez, was sleeping in the back of the car on Tuesday night when it was taken away because the boy's mother, Isabel Leuvano, was behind on her payments.
Leuvano says she was waiting for her daughter outside the running car when someone jumped in and drove off.
Police say the driver was 47-year-old Alberto Luna, the owner of Alberto's Auto Sales.
Officers located the toddler a half-hour later — about the same time Luna told authorities that he discovered the boy.
Sgt. Ronnie Lopez says kidnapping charges don't appear to be warranted. But he says Luna should have checked the car thoroughly.
