Ohio woman attempts to kidnap young boy, claims to be from CPS: 'Terrifying'
Lisa Nacrelli, 44, was arrested and charged with child enticement after a Norwood family accused her of attempting to take the child home with her.
A Texas woman was sentenced to five years in prison after kidnapping her two granddaughters from a Cicis pizza restaurant earlier this year.
Jame Burns pleaded guilty to third-degree felony kidnapping Thursday, according to court records obtained by FOX 4 Dallas.
Burns' son, Justin, was dining at a Cicis pizza restaurant in McKinney with his two daughters before the kidnapping on Jan. 19. Justin had temporary custody of the girls but was otherwise noncustodial, so a child protective services' employee was supervising the meal.
Nine-year-old Jessica Burns, and 6-year-old Jennifer Burns, disappeared from the restaurant shortly before 6 p.m., triggering an Amber Alert. Police identified the father as a suspect and soon determined that Jame was involved.

"The CPS worker called the police and when our Officers arrived, the father, Justin Burns was taken into custody, as we do believe he was involved in their disappearance," McKinney Police Department said in a Facebook post at the time.
Justin Burns was charged with two counts of kidnapping and held in Collin County Jail, though it is unclear if the charges were dropped.
