EDINBURG - Campus police at the University of Texas Pan American arrested a fourth person in connection to a student's kidnapping. The abduction happened last month on campus.

We're told the suspect arrested is a 36-year-old woman from Hidalgo. She's facing aggravated kidnapping charges. Authorities suspect the 36-year-old used her vehicle to transport and relocate the victim.

Three men were already arrested and charged in the case. All four suspects are expected to go before a judge later this afternoon. They'll be arraigned on an additional charge of engaging in organized criminal activity.

The kidnapping victim was eventually reunited with her family. We're told no ransom was paid.
