Police arrest two Illinois parents after surrounding vehicle in parking lot of westside Walmart
No attention to myself is necessary please, I just thought the public needs to be aware that there are sickos in our area all the time and please keep an eye on your children and the situations around you. This was a very sad scene to watch and although I do not fully understand the situation, there are children involved who had their hands tied and they were"blindfolded" (as I stand corrected). Yes, much thanks to the lady with enough sense to call 911. I apologize to anyone whom I have offended. It was a very exciting scene and I am a nosy lady who wanted answers to what was witnessed today.

Police arrest two Illinois parents after surrounding vehicle in parking lot of westside Walmart
There were 5 or more children in the suburban. I heard it was out in the parking lot for over 2 days, with coverings over the windows. The children had their hands bound behind their backs and mouths taped shut. They arrested a woman who from what I heard was purchasing tarps and a baseball bat. The man was tasered in the parking lot several times, and onlookers heard him screaming, "Hallelujah"...Last thing I heard before I left Walmart was that police were calling it some kind of an abduction and the children were taken to the hospital for medical attention. Why no one noticed or checked on the vehicle until today worries me! A female customer saw a child bound in the vehicle and called 911... All I can say is if all of what I heard is true then those sick bastards need to pay. AND again, I heard all of this from another customer. Not sure how much of it is true...
