Abducted ...
(Wallace Moody—above—was abducted from in front of his home in the 6700 block of North Third Street last night.)
Investigators are looking for connections between Moody's abduction and the previous night's murder of Beanie Sigel's 46-year-old stepfather Sam Derry.
The police held a news conference on the two topics this afternoon, where newshounds asked if Derry had been cellmates with Moody, or if the 39-year-old abductee had some relationship with Derry's brother.
Police said they are "investigating."
PW had earlier reported that court documents do show Moody was arrested with a Kent Derry, whom investigators believe to be Sam Derry's brother.
The pair was arrested in November 1999 on charges of dealing cocaine. They pleaded guilty and each received four-to-eight-year prison terms.
Sam Derry faced several arrests in his lifetime and received an acquittal on murder charges in the late '80s. He was convicted of robbery in 1991 and served nine years in prison.
He was shot to death and found burning in an alleyway after 4 a.m. on Tuesday morning.
Moody was abducted before 6 a.m. on Wednesday.
