Well, I am so happy for this outcome! Now, I want to know who the heck these idiots are!

THANK GOD. That was great police work. Oh I am so thankful she is safe. Will be interesting to hear their story.

How horrible. A man walking behind her and the possible female driving the car. She didn't have a chance. It also look like the driver in that one photo may be on the phone. Wonder how close that photo is to where she was snatched.

Lots of prayers going up!!!!

Great work MSP!

@Jethro4WS , can you do a cross match adding plate color? Plate looks white

Not as easy with specialty plates out there. But South Carolina, Oklahoma, maybe Kansas, maybe Michigan (numbers on MI plates are blue).
Florida, Arizona, Georgia, Indiana, are too colorful.

Holy moly, an absolute miracle! My heart is in my throat!

Omg - Thanks Mass Staties !!!! Yes yes yes!

News says she is found. Located car on Mass Pike. Will be news conference at 8:00.

Wow, I wonder if someone who got the Amber alert on their phone or a billboard saw the car on the turnpike. The exits are spread out pretty far on the pike, gives driver time to track. So blessed to be found!

Holy moly, an absolute miracle! My heart is in my throat!

Stopped on the MA Turnpike too..so they were headed who-knows-where. Definitely headed away from her town. It's a good thing they decided to drive the turnpike.

AMBER ALERT UPDATE:

State Police say they stopped a car tonight on the Mass. Turnpike eastbound, in the Auburn/Sturbridge area.

11-year-old Charlotte Moccia of Springfield was inside.

Two people are under arrest. Charlotte is being checked out but has "no apparent injuries".

Wonderful news!

Doesn’t seem too clever of the perp to drive on the Pike which has plate readers on gantries for toll collection. But I’m sure glad he did!

Yup. Heading East too, which is deeper into Massachusetts as opposed to away from it, was also a mistake.

Good thing they didn’t head north, west, or south, and leave the state altogether.

Thank you God and all those LEOs! Thank God for Amber Alerts, and dozens of traffic cams. So relieved.

I am curious to know if this was a true stranger abduction or something custodial related.
But either way I am so very happy and relieved she was found so quickly and safe.

Our CBS Boston affiliate is covering it now. An update from the police commissioner and mayor will be coming up fairly soon.

A detail officer with the state police spotted the vehicle and pulled it over.

Way to go, state police!
