Investigators say John picked up a 9-year-old boy and an 8-year-old girl in Perth Amboy around 4 p.m. so he could take them out for food. But police were contacted when the children failed to return home.
The children were brought home sometime between 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. Saturday. But John fled the scene and remained at large late Saturday afternoon.
