The body of a boy from Virginia Beach announced that the disappeared last week was withdrawn from a pond on Monday, three days after his parents were looking for a ransom, which could just be twisted.
The 12 -year -old Juan Sebastian Mezhia Acevedo was found dead on the local pond on Monday afternoon after his parents called the police on a Friday night and said the boy never got home from a friend’s house, according to CBS 6 Richmond.
The cops investigated the case as a possible kidnapping after the parents received a ransom message during a legal legal basis that they made that night, and the state police issued Amber Alert around 7am the next day.
The family said it had paid the $ 500 request, but was never heard by the alleged abductors, said Virginia Police Police Chief Paul Nadgitage.
The request for ransom may be a fraud, said the chief – the attempt of unscrupulous actors to take advantage of the family at their most darkest hour.
“This will not be the first time this type of fraud has been immortalized in a family that goes through difficult circumstances,” the chief said. “Is this an opportunity? It’s absolutely.
“Unfortunately, since it included outside countries, we need search orders, summonses to try to identify who this individual was receiving that money,” the chief said.
On Monday afternoon, authorities found Asevedo’s corpse in a pond near Cornerstone Apartments near Southern Independence Boulevard – not far from Mika Avenue, where his parents last saw him, said the exit.
It is too early to say whether the police will open a murder investigation or manage accidental death, authorities said.
“It’s too early to speculate,” Naudgita said. “We just restored it. As we get more information and we can confirm facts – not what we believe has happened – we will get it on the community. “
“We had no specific indications that these reservoirs were an area of interest, but we did not want to leave a stone overturned.”
The boy’s body was sent to the medical examination to determine the cause of death.
