The couple had been kidnapped right in front of their children in the San Antonio area.
Police have now located and rescued the couple.
The Kidnapping
From the outset, police stated that Samantha Esquivel-Zuniga, 38, and Ricky Zuniga, 37, had been targeted.
They were accosted at gunpoint, shoved into an SUV, and taken from their children.
Police followed leads and by Thursday morning, they were dialed in on a home where they believed the couple was staying.
Not long after authorities arrived at the home, the couple appeared, and they were immediately taken into care to ensure they were okay.
Police then arrested Felipe Valdez, 40, and Xhavier Martinez, 29, on charges related to the kidnapping.
San Antonio Police Sergeant Washington Moscoso stated, “The detectives, through their investigation, quickly realized that this was a targeted kidnapping; it wasn’t a random act.
“It wasn’t just these individuals picked a house.
“This was a targeted aggravated kidnapping to this particular family.
“At no point during this instance was the general public in any kind of danger.”
There is still a third suspect at large, but police have yet to identify the individual.
