EDWARDSVILLE, ILL. — Police believe a stepfather may have kidnapped a 13-year-old teen and her 2-week-old baby and may be headed for West Virginia.
According to KSDK, the Madison County Sheriff's Office says that Katherine and Christopher Ray Derleth, who live in Carpenter, Illinois, went missing Sunday. Authorities also believe that they are with Katherine's stepfather, Christopher Derleth.
