Suspect in Amber Alert arrested, faces charges after 2 kids from Kyle, Texas, found safe
The suspect in an Amber Alert for two missing 6-year-old girls from Kyle, Texas, has been arrested and faces multiple charges, including drug possession, officials said.
About 30 minutes after the Amber Alert was issued Tuesday night, someone spotted the vehicle parked outside a business in Caldwell County, Kyle police said in a social media update. Authorities detained 20-year-old Kylei Glasgow, who’d been asleep in the vehicle.
The children, Jaylynn Webber-Daniels and Jordyn Webber-Daniels, were unharmed, police said.
Officials found fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine and LSD in the vehicle, according to police. Glasgow was booked into the Hays County Jail and charged with two counts of abandoning/endangering a child, public intoxication, five counts of possession of a controlled substance and an unrelated warrant from a prior case. Investigators are working to determine if additional charges should be added.
The Amber Alert was discontinued Tuesday night after the children were found.
“They have been safely recovered by law enforcement in another county,” Kyle Police Department officials posted on social media.
Police were notified around 2:30 p.m. that the two 6-year-olds had gone fishing with an adult family friend and hadn’t returned home. Their mother hadn’t heard from them since they left their neighborhood around 10:30 a.m. The suspect vehicle was seen on video surveillance around 12:30 p.m. in Kyle.
Anyone with information about the abduction was asked to call Kyle police at (512) 268-3232.
Kyle is located in Hays County and lies southwest of Austin. It is around a four-hour-drive from Fort Worth.
