Florida 6-Year-Old Abducted at Knifepoint by 4 Women in Home Invasion

Four women were arrested Saturday after they abducted a 6-year-old child from another woman at knifepoint in Florida.

Melbourne Police were called to a home in south Melbourne just before 11 a.m., WKMG reported. The victim told them the women “attacked a threatened her with a knife.”

The women took the child in an SUV with Alabama plates, and investigators said they believe the women are related to the child’s father, who lives in that state.

After putting out a statewide bulletin, deputies with the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office spotted the vehicle heading west on Interstate 10 about 200 miles away. They stopped the vehicle, recovered the child, and detained the suspects.

The suspects were identified as Eva Leonora Ical, 32; Ingris Ical, 22; Marcia Ical, 30; and Dilia Pop Tec Ical, 24. They have each been charged with home invasion robbery, grand theft from a dwelling, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, kidnapping, child abuse, and unlawful possession of the personal identification information of another person.

The child was returned to the mother and was not physically injured.

The suspects will be returned to Brevard County for trial.
