Police say Miles began threatening the mother, who pulled the car over at 98th Street and I-35W. Investigators say Miles then pulled the mother out of the car by her hair, leaving her on the side of the road. Before she left, Miles reportedly told the mother she would never see her child again.

BCA investigators believed Miles was heading to an unknown address in Savage. Burnsville police found the suspect car, the boy and Miles at a Holiday shortly after the AMBER alert was issued Friday night.
