BAKER - New details about a Baker girl's kidnapping have been released and agents say one of the men arrested for kidnapping was not involved in the alleged human trafficking scheme.

Chris Masters, a Supervisory Special Agent with the Louisiana Attorney General's Cyber Crimes Unit, said 62-year-old Alvin Hanson was at the Greyhound Bus station when he met the 13-year-old missing girl. 

Masters said Hanson was aware the girl was missing, but he never called law enforcement. Instead, he brought her to a homeless shelter with him to eat and bought her some clothes at a store. Afterward, he took her back to the bus station and the two parted ways. 

Hanson was booked for contributing to the delinquency of juveniles. 

Two others arrested, 62-year-old man Ronald Smith and 26-year-old Ki-Shawn Crumity, were booked on kidnapping charges.
