(WHDH) — An 18-year-old Texas man is being held on high bail in connection with the alleged kidnapping of two New Hampshire girls on Friday.
New Hampshire State Police say Cameron J. Snody of Fort Worth flew to New Hampshire to meet a 17-year-old girl from Swanzey who he had been messaging on a popular messaging app.
Snody is accused of stealing the victim’s brother’s 2006 Saturn Ion and driving off toward New York City with the girl and her 15-year-old friend.
Family members were able to get in touch with the younger victim, who informed investigators they had made it to New York City and were now traveling northbound on Interstate 91.
Connecticut troopers took him into custody near Exit 23 around 10:15 a.m. and the two girls were taken to a local hospital for evaluation.
New Hampshire state police said they were unharmed.
Snody was ordered held on $500,000 bond and is facing extradition back to New Hampshire.
