The family of a kidnapped woman in Duson, La., Bethany Arceneaux, took justice into their own hands Friday when they rescued Arceneaux from her captor, Scott Thomas, killing Thomas in the scuffle that ensued.

Arceneaux, 29, was kidnapped on Wednesday from a child-care center parking lot by Thomas, 29, the father of her son, reported The Advertiser. Their two-year-old son was in her car at the time, and was not harmed.

Arceneaux’s family received a tip that she was being kept in an abandoned house nearby. As law enforcement had not yet acted, a half dozen family members assembled at the house and kicked down the door. They said they did not know what they would find.

They found Arceneaux, bloody but alive, and Thomas. In the confrontation between Arceneaux’s family and Thomas, guns were fired and Thomas was fatally shot.

If somebody had my sister I would go in there and kill them without even thinking about it. Good for them.

I so happy that her family was able to rescue her before she was murdered!
Very few people nowadays have that kind of network of family and friends.

Brothers, uncles, cousins and neighbors.Men and women who acted, and will deal with the “government” later.

Prayers sent for her full recovery, and prayers also for her family and friends.
