The kidnapped wife and child of Ecuadorian player Jackson Rodriguez have been freed, local police confirmed on Friday.

Ecuadorian soccer player Jackson Rodríguez's wife and 5-year-old child were kidnapped early Wednesday, police reported, when men broke into their home in search of the Emelec defender, who told investigators he hid under a bed.
