 Good evening, everyone. We are live tonight from Cleveland, Ohio, where three women who were missing for about a decade are finally free after allegedly being held captive at that home across the street from where I'm standing¹, where you can see members of the FBI in hazmat suits still investigating. Here's the latest information that we have. Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, Michele Knight² and a child believed to be Amanda Berry's were found alive here last night after Berry screamed for help through a crack in the front door and got the attention of neighbors, who helped her escape. Now three suspects, former school bus driver Ariel Castro and his two brothers were arrested, they are in jail awaiting charges. They're set to be interviewed by investigators³ tomorrow. Now some neighbors say they are shocked by what happens. Others say that they called police in recent years after hearing yelling at the house and in one case, seeing a naked woman in the backyard. The FBI is searching the house as I said for evidence right now. The police chief says it will probably be a few more days until the investigation⁴ inside the house here on this block is complete. Now the amount of time that these women were missing, it's simply extraordinary. Hard to imagine, for nine, 10 and in one case, 11 years. Three families have been hoping, holding candlelight vigils, searching for these women. Now that they've been found it's shocking to see how close they were from where they were last seen. They disappeared in separate incidents years apart but within blocks of each other on the same street in Cleveland's Lorain Avenue. The home where they were found is just three miles away. The neighbor, Charles Ramsey, who is one of the neighbors to notice that Amanda Berry was screaming for help and actually do something. His actions last night and the actions of some of the other neighbors have people calling him a hero. Last night, he said he was surprised to find out what was allegedly going on at his neighbor's house. He's lived here for about a year and here's what he said last Saturday. I've been here a year. OK. You see where I'm coming from? Right. I barbecued with this dude. We eat ribs⁵ and whatnot, listen to salsa music. You see where I'm coming from? Yes. And you had no indication that there's anything going on? Not a, bro, not a clue that that girl was in that house, or anybody else was in there against their will. Well, I just came back from interviewing Charles Ramsey just a short time ago. Here's some of that interview.
