Police in Maryland told the AP that a suspect is in custody in Charlotte in the death of a woman and the disappearance of her 11-year-old son.
Montgomery County Police Spokesperson Rebecca Innocenti said the missing vehicle, a Honda CRV, was also found around 8:30am Thursday in the greater Charlotte area.
The child, William McQuain, 11, was not in the vehicle and is still missing. "A lot of attention is being paid to the person of interest, but we still need help finding this child," she told WBTV by phone.
She would not identify the person of interest or give the exact location where the vehicle was found.
