    Las Vegas Amber Alert

    Missing From: Hollywood and Lake Mead, Las Vegas, NV
    Missing Date: 10/15/2008 12:00 AM

    Circumstances: Las Vegas Metro Police Department earlier this morning reported that a 6-year-old boy was kidnapped this morning from a home near Hollywood and Lake Mead during a robbery around 7:15 a.m. According to police, the two suspects knocked on the door and indicated they were police however once inside they tied up the boy's mother and her male friend and began looking for money in the home. Police say they took the boy when no money was found. The reason why there was no AMBER Alert Activation until just before Noon, was LVMPD had no descriptions to give. However, we now have one description of the three Hispanic males who are now suspects, all of whom speak with a Hispanic accent.

    Grandfather of abducted Nevada boy arrested


    2 mins ago
    AP – Clemens Fred Tinnemeyer, 51,
    RIVERSIDE, Calif. – The grandfather of a kidnapped 6-year-old Nevada boy was arrested in Southern California after police named him a "person of interest" in the abduction.

    Clemons Fred Tinnemeyer was arrested late Friday in Riverside by United States Marshals, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff's records. He was being held at the Central Detention Center in the city of San Bernardino.
    Investigators said they believe the child's kidnapping may be linked to Tinnemeyer's drug dealings with Mexican nationals.
    U.S. Marshals' and Las Vegas police officials had no further information about the arrest early Saturday. San Bernardino County sheriff's officials did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
    The boy, Cole Puffinburger, was abducted from a Las Vegas.

    Re: Las Vegas Amber Alert

    It is my understanding this little boy has still not been found.

    Is this correct?

    No the boy is still missing. They arrested the grandfather believing he has information about the kidnappers. Allegedly the grandfather was involved in laundering drug money through Las Vegas casinos and stole several million dollars.

    Glad he was found alive and well. People don't think about it when they get envolved with drug dealers, but thoes kind of people go after your family to get what they want.
