A 2-year-old Rhode Island boy who went missing after a double homicide in Johnston this morning has been found safe, while two men are in custody and being questioned in the boy’s disappearance and the murders.

Isiah Perez, 2, the subject of an Amber Alert, was found in Providence today in good health, police said. Police declined to specify when or where he was found.
Police are exploring charges against Daniel Rodriguez, 28, who was arrested at a residence in Providence around 5:30 p.m. today, and Malcolm Crowell, 22, who was arrested around 1:30 p.m. at his workplace in Fall River, Johnston Police Deputy Chief Daniel Parrillo said.

Rodriguez and Crowell are being questioned in connections with the 5 a.m. double homicide in Johnston, Parrillo said, as well as the disappearance of Perez, who Parrillo said lives at the Johnston address with two other children. The Rhode Island Amber Alert issued for Perez had described Crowell as “armed and dangerous.”

“They’re both people of interest that we had a lot of information on, and that’s why we took both of them into custody,” Parrillo said. “Charging is going to be a whole different issue.”

Parrillo said police have not yet positively identified the two victims in the double homicide, or ascertained the relationships between the boy, the two victims, and the two suspects.

“It’s kind of a dynamic relationship between all five of these people,” Parrillo said. “We haven’t really got down to the bottom of it yet.”

Fall River Police towed a red Toyota Camry with Rhode Island plates around 4:30 p.m. from Devalles Boulevard, where there was a consistent police presence Sunday. A Massachusetts state police spokesman said this afternoon that Crowell was not believed to be the person cops were looking for, but Fall River and Johnston police said that he is the suspect.

Man waives bail hearing in Johnston double killing


Updated 11:17 am, Tuesday, September 24, 2013

WARWICK, R.I. (AP) — A man accused of killing his former girlfriend and her adult daughter at their home in Johnston and kidnapping her 2-year-old son has waived his right to a bail hearing.

Daniel Rodriguez agreed to be held without bail during an appearance in Kent County District Court on Tuesday.

Rodriguez is charged with murder in last month's killing of 40-year-old Evelyn Burgos and 25-year-old Vanessa Perez at Burgos's home. Authorities say he also kidnapped Burgos's 2-year-old son, Isaiah Perez, who was later found unharmed in Providence.

The kidnapping prompted a nationwide Amber Alert.

Rodriguez has not entered a plea. His lawyer would not comment.
