Nearly 20 years after grandparents abducted him in Indiana, man found living in Minnesota under assumed name

LONG PRAIRIE, Minn. – A 24-year-old man discovered living in Minnesota under an assumed name was abducted by his paternal grandparents nearly two decades ago when his unemployed mother was living in a car in Indiana, authorities said Friday.

The grandparents could face federal charges in the case, a Minnesota sheriff said.

Richard Wayne Landers Jr. now lives in the small northern Minnesota town of Long Prairie under the name Michael Jeff Landers, the Todd County Sheriff's Office said Friday.
