Melissa Duran





Henderson Police are seeking the public's help in locating a 17-year-old girl who was abducted Friday morning from her home.
Melissa Duran was kidnapped about 7:30 a.m. from her home on the 300 block of Esquina Drive, near the intersection of Warm Springs Road and Arroyo Grande Boulevard, police said.
Two men knocked on the home's door and took Duran when she answered, police said. A ransom demand was made about a half hour later in a phone call to Duran's parents, police said. Authorities indicated a second ransom call also was made to her parents.
The suspects fled from the neighborhood in a red, late model, two-door passenger car with a blue fender on the front passenger side, police said. The most recent Amber Alert, which was issued at 3:50 p.m. Friday, indicates investigators think the suspects may have fled Nevada.
"Right now it’s a really hard time," the girl's father, Alejandro Duran, said in a brief phone call Friday afternoon with the Sun. "I can’t talk right now."  http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/aug/31/henderson-teen-kidnapped-home-amber-alert-issued/
