Bay Area woman's car repossessed with child inside


SAN JOSE, CA (AP) -- Police say a car dealership that came to repossess a San Jose woman's Honda Accord left with something a bit more valuable: her 2-year-old son.

The child, Cyrus Lopez, was sleeping in the back of the car Tuesday night when it was taken away because the boy's mother, Isabel Leuvano, was behind on her payments.

Leuvano said she was waiting for her daughter outside the running car when someone jumped in and drove off.

Police said that someone was Alberto Luna, 47, the owner of Alberto's Auto Sales.

Sgt. Ronnie Lopez said kidnapping charges don't appear to be warranted, but he said Luna should have checked the car thoroughly.
