TEXAS –  A woman kidnapped from Texas has been found safe in a suburban Chicago motel.

Police say Erika Valdez was kidnapped at gunpoint near Houston Tuesday by an acquaintance police identified as Abel Fajardo.

Friday police in west suburban Lyons got a tip that the pair was at a motel in McCook.

Officers found them and arrested Fajardo.

Valdez was found in a closet and taken to a local hospital with some cuts and bruises.

Police say Fajardo could face federal charges for taking the woman across state lines.
