Indiana foster mom charged in 10-year-old boy's death arrested in Michigan

An Indiana foster mom wanted in the death of a 10-year-old boy was arrested in Michigan Saturday evening.

This comes after a warrant for her arrest was issued on Friday.

Her homicide charge stems from an incident on April 25, when authorities were called to a home in the 200 block of Falcon Way in Liberty Township for a "medical emergency." 

When officers arrived, they found 10-year-old Dakota Stevens and transported him to an area hospital. 

Stevens died two days later from "mechanical asphyxia," according to the St. Joseph County Coroner's Office. 

His death was ruled a homicide and at the time of his death, Stevens was in foster care, officials said. 

A deputy was able to track down Wilson after identifying her vehicle through a license plate reader, according to the sheriff's office. 

This is a developing story and we'll bring more updates as they become available.
