Police here and in Pennsylvania were closing in on the stolen car carrying Vicosa, his alleged accomplice, Tia Bynum and 6- and 7-year-old Aaminah and Giana Vicosa.

Officers said they found four weapons inside the stolen SUV, including an assault rifle.

State troopers are emphasizing the investigation is ongoing.
