Police arrested a man they say kidnapped a mother and her infant son from a home in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
The woman and her 1-month-old were found safe Monday morning.
Jasmine Livermore and the child were taken during a home invasion early Monday, police said. Officers got the call at about 1:15 a.m.
Police believe 24-year-old Wani Thomas forced the mother and baby into a car at gunpoint. Authorities did not say if there’s a relationship between Thomas and the victims.
During the manhunt, police warned the suspect was “considered armed and dangerous.”
