The Bay Area News Group reported on Friday that Luis Armando Albino's niece in Oakland - with assistance from police, the FBI and the justice department-located her uncle living on the US east coast.
Albino, a grandfather, is a retired firefighter and Marine Corps veteran who served in Vietnam, according to his niece, Alida Alequin, 63. She found Albino and reunited him with his California family in June.
On 21 February 1951 a woman lured the six-year-old Albino from the park in West Oakland, where he had been playing with his older brother, and promised him in Spanish that she would buy him candy. Instead, the woman kidnapped the Puerto Ricoborn boy, flying him to the east coast, where a couple raised him as if he were their own son, the news group reported. Officials and family members did not say where on the east coast he lives.
