A Georgia man who fled the state last week with his three young children sent a letter to his father stating that he was going to kill the kids, the FBI said Tuesday.
Eddie Harrington, 28, has been missing from the Columbus, Ga., area since at least March 6, when authorities in Tennessee issued a child abduction alert after he may have been spotted there.
He is believed to be traveling with his twin 23-month-old girls, and his 3-year-old son, according to the FBI.
At some point, Eddie Harrington sent a letter to his father in the Indianapolis area "indicating he was going to kill the kids," an FBI statement said.
Columbus police issued a felony child endangerment warrant for Harrington, and the FBI on Monday issued a federal unlawful flight to avoid prosecution warrant. He is believed to have left the state, and is headed for Indianapolis.
