Witness descriptions of the driver and vehicle are consistent with Smoker and his vehicle.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nStoltzfoos was reported missing on the night of June 21 by her father when she did not return from a youth group she was supposed to attend. Investigators have confirmed that she did not ever make it to the social gathering that night.<\/p>\n<p>\nAuthorities have obtained and viewed surveillance footage that shows Stoltzfoos on Beechdale Road near the community of Bird-In-Hand, which would have been her walking route back home after church, as well as a red Kia Rio involved in the abduction that fit the description of Smoker\u2019s vehicle registration and bumper stickers.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAccording to the East Lampeter Township Police Department, Smoker was arrested on Friday night at the place of his employment and arraigned on Saturday morning on the two charges of felony kidnapping and misdemeanor false imprisonment.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cDistrict Judge Joshua Keller, at arraignment, made Smoker ineligible for bail, citing the nature of charges and the ongoing investigation,\u201d said the East Lampeter Township Police Department.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nInvestigators searched a rural location in Ronks, Pennsylvania, on Friday evening which is where they believe Stoltzfoos may have been taken following her abduction and authorities found articles of clothing buried in a wooded area that they believe belong to Stoltzfoos.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEast Lampeter Township police is being assisted by multiple agencies, to include the FBI, Pennsylvania State Police and Lancaster County District Attorney\u2019s Office,\u201d police said.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAuthorities are asking for anyone with clues or information to come forward as well as people who might have seen Smoker or his red Kia Rio sedan around the time Stoltzfoos was abducted.<\/p>\n<p>\nStoltzfoos weighs approximately 125 pounds and is 5\u201910\u201d with blue eyes and brown hair, according to the FBI\u2019s missing person report, and was last seen wearing a tan dress, white apron and black head covering.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe FBI is now offering a reward of $10,000 for information leading to her recovery.\n<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<div>\n<div>\n<hr>\n<\/hr>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ABC News\" data-mptype=\"image\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" title=\"ABC News\"><\/img><\/p>\n<hr>\n<\/hr>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n<section><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/US\/man-arrested-charged-missing-amish-teenage-girl-vanished\/story?id=71738732\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The man&#8217;s charges include felony kidnapping and misdemeanor false imprisonment.July 12, 2020, 10:37 AM6 min read A Pennsylvania man has been charged with the kidnapping of an Amish teenager who has been missing since last month and has yet to be found.
