New video could lead to kidnapping, carjacking, and robbery suspect

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- New video is coming to the surface to help police track down the man who abducted, carjacked, and robbed a nanny watching a one-year-old in Northeast Fresno on Friday.

"There's a lot of people who live in the northern part of Fresno that are now realizing this can happen anywhere," said Fresno police chief Jerry Dyer

Fresno Police say a couple of new video sources are helping them close in on the criminal, and they're hustling to make an arrest because of how bold and reckless his crime was.

The Northeast Fresno neighborhood and shopping center where it happened may always bring back bad memories for the 24-year-old victim.

"She's traumatized, very emotionally traumatized," Dyer said.

Surveillance video from the Champlain and Shepherd area shows her getting out of the passenger side of her SUV at a Wells Fargo ATM.

Police drove to Casa de Fruta to meet Wells Fargo security employees and get video from the ATM itself showing her walking up to make a $200 withdrawal the suspect forced her to make.

"Behind her is the vehicle, and at one point you see the suspect get out of the vehicle on the driver's side, stand there momentarily between the vehicle and the open door," Dyer said.

A Fresno company enhanced the video to give investigators a better look at the suspect. Police have seen the overweight, about 5' 6", balding white man in his forties in two videos now and a third is coming soon.

Neighbors who've been on vacation came home Wednesday, and they have two cameras pointing out to the street where the guy first pulled a knife on the woman as she walked down the road.

Detectives hope all the new video will lead to an arrest of a suspect they say acted like he had no fear of getting caught.

"I'm absolutely confident if this individual was brazen enough to do this act in broad daylight and do what he did that he will strike again," Dyer said.

They're also analyzing DNA -- including from the SUV, which the suspect dumped in The Bluffs neighborhood just west of Woodward Park.

It is possible that people living in The Bluffs neighborhood could have useful home security video from Friday morning as well.
