A judge ordered yesterday that two men accused of abducting a Prince George’s County family in a failed bank robbery scheme be held without bond, and Maryland State Police investigators searched for a third suspect.

Yosef Tadele, 23, of Silver Spring and Yohannes T. Surafel, 24, of the District are charged with multiple counts of kidnapping, attempted robbery and first- and second-degree assault. In charging documents, authorities identified the third suspect as Beruk Ayalneh.

Police allege that Tadele dropped off Surafel and Ayalneh Friday night in Clinton, where they forced their way into the home of an assistant bank manager and held her, her husband and two boys — ages 8 and 11 — overnight at gunpoint. Read More.
