We previously reported on the infant twins who were abducted at a gas station, and now, weeks after the incident, one of the twins, Kason Ky’air has passed away.
An infant twin who was allegedly kidnapped and recently returned to his mother passed away on Saturday after being rushed to the hospital.
After a lady allegedly stole a car with Ky’air Thomas and his twin brother Kason still inside, the brothers were discovered alive last month. Last month, Columbus police said that both boys had been sent back to their mother’s house in Ohio.
Columbus police were called Saturday to a residence for reports of a baby not breathing. Ky’air was pronounced dead after he was taken to Nationwide Children’s Hospital, police said.
A cause of death has not been released.
Nalah Jackson is accused of stealing the 2010 Honda Accord outside a restaurant in the Short North neighborhood on Dec. 19, with both infant twins inside. Ky’air was found at Dayton International Airport and Jackson was arrested, but Kason remained missing.
The Honda Accord was found later, with Kason inside, abandoned near a Papa John’s restaurant in Indianapolis.
Shyann Belmar told NBC affiliate WCMH of Columbus that she had given Jackson a ride to a gas station on Dec. 20, then saw her photo on Facebook in connection with the kidnapping allegations.
