Twin infant siblings are safe Saturday evening after being abducted during a vehicle theft, police said.

Milwaukee police said a 33-year-old Milwaukee mother parked a 2013 gray Dodge Journey near a residence in the 3300 block of N. 49th Street about 3 p.m.


Neighbors said the woman, visiting a family member's home, left her sport utility vehicle near the back of the house and stepped inside the home for just a brief period of time. She left the SUV running with her 10-month-old twins, a boy and a girl, inside.



A thief got in the SUV and drove off with the woman's babies.

"Like just this quick, the car was gone and her kids were with the car," neighbor Jasmine Duck.

Duck ran to help the panicked mom and call police.



"She was like freaking out and falling on the ground," Duck said.



Authorities issued an Amber Alert, but canceled it after the twins were found safe about an hour later inside the stolen SUV.

The SUV was found in an alley, about 2 miles away, in the 2300 block of N. 40th Street.

The babies were unharmed but were taken to a hospital as a precaution.

"It was a blessing. It was a relief," Duck said. "It could have just been so bad."

Police investigators were back at the scene Saturday night, hours after the abduction, searching for clues as they look for the thief.
