3 adults charged with child abduction after Newfoundland Amber Alert

3 adults charged with child abduction after Newfoundland Amber Alert
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter




Three people in their 60s and 70s have been charged with child abduction and conspiracy to commit an abduction in a case that promoted an Amber Alert in Newfoundland on Thursday.

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary says police arrested Wilbur Crockwell, 72, of New Brunswick in Badger at 9:55 p.m. on Thursday. They believe he came to the province to abduct a 14-year-old girl who was originally from New Brunswick but living in St. John’s.

CBC News has learned Crockwell used to live with the girl and her mother in New Brunswick. Family members tell CBC News they did not consider him to be a guardian or a person they trusted to take care of the girl.

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary says officers found the girl at a cabin on Bay d’Espoir Highway just after 1 a.m. on Friday with a 69-year-old man, Cyril Boone, and a 63-year-old woman, Erin Bast, both from Milltown-Head of Bay d’Espoir.

All three adults were arrested. In addition to the charges of abduction and conspiracy to commit abduction, Crockwell is charged with luring a child.

New information prompted Amber Alert

The girl — who CBC News is not naming due to policies on underage victims of alleged crimes — was reported missing last week. She had been last seen June 2, in the area of Thorburn Road in St. John’s.

Police now say they had information that she packed her bags before leaving, and an “unauthorized adult” was “providing guidance” to her. The family told CBC News that person was Wilbur Crockwell.
