BOULEVARD (CNS) - A search was underway today for a man suspected of kidnapping at least one of two missing children, killing their mother and setting fire to a home in Boulevard, where the woman's body was found, along with that of an unidentified child.
Hannah Anderson, 16, and Ethan Anderson, 8, may have been taken by James Lee DiMaggio, 40, who is believed to have been in a ``close platonic relationship'' with their mother, 44-year-old Christina Anderson of Lakeside, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.
Anderson's body and a dead dog were found as fire crews were extinguishing the blaze at DiMaggio's home and detached garage at 2071 Ross Ave. shortly after 8 p.m. Sunday, sheriff's Lt. Glenn Giannantonio said. The body of a child was also found as crews searched through the rubble of one of the burned buildings, he said.
Investigators determined that Anderson was the victim of homicide, Giannantonio said without elaboration. How the child died was not immediately determined, he said.
