MOREAU, N.Y. - Authorities have revealed a potentially winding route home that suspected kidnapper Craig Nelson Ross Jr. may have taken from Lake Moreau State Park Saturday after allegedly abducting 9-year-old Charlotte Sena off her bike from the campground.
The Saratoga County Sheriff's Office is asking anyone who lives along a series of roads in the area to contact investigators if their home security cameras recorded video between 6:15 p.m. and 7:15 p.m. on Sept. 30 as authorities continue to investigate the kidnapping.
