Authorities identify 4 children abducted in Boyle Heights

Four children who were abducted from their grandmother’s Boyle Heights house on Friday have been identified.

Enrique Felix, 7, his brother Justin, 5, and 1-year-old twin sisters Veronica and Janet, were taken from their grandmother’s home in the 1400 block of North Indiana Street on Friday by their parents, Enrique Felix and Rosa Chairez, the LAPD says.

Felix and Chairez were only allowed to see their children while being supervised by Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services employees at county offices, according to police.

The California Highway Patrol issued an Amber Alert for the children early Saturday morning.

Felix, 28, was known to be physically violent toward his wife and children, police said. He is about 5 feet 10 and 200 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Chairez is 5 feet 3 and about 150 pounds, with red hair and brown eyes. Her age was not given.

The vehicle used in the abduction was a dark-colored Chrysler PT Cruiser that was missing the right rear hubcap and had paper license plates.
