A woman, both a nurse and a mother of a son, has been found shot dead after being kidnapped, according to local Michigan reports.
Detroit cops said the suspect, 36-year-old Jamere Miller, abducted Patrice Latoya Wilson on Saturday around 7:40 a.m. in the 4200 block of St. Antoine Street.

His mother, Rosalyn Livingston, told the outlet during the search that she received a call from someone who described speaking to Wilson on the phone. Then there were screams and Wilson’s phone went dead.
