HAYWARD, Calif., Sept. 2 (UPI) -- California authorities are examining similarities between the kidnapping of Jaycee Lee Dugard and another child who was kidnapped around the same time in 1988.
Dugard, now 29, was found alive imprisoned in the backyard of Phillip Garrido of Antioch, Calif. Police say Garrido held her there for 18 years and fathered two children by her, and they're eyeing possible links between Dugard's kidnapping at age 11 in South Lake Tahoe, Calif., and the 1988 abduction of a 7-year-old girl in Hayward, Calif., the San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News reported Wednesday.
