'A Christmas miracle' — Family of Kason Thomas, police officers thrilled at Amber Alert recovery

"When we got that confirmation, the whole parking lot just lit up," Thomas, baby's grandmother, told News 5.

Kason was abducted with his twin Ky'air Monday night. Both boys were in the back seat of their mother's vehicle as she left the car running to pick up a Door Dash order. In an interview with News 5's sister-station WRTV in Indianapolis, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department Sgt. Shawn Anderson and Sgt. Richard El described the moment they got on scene.

Hours before the child was found safe, Columbus police announced Jackson had been arrested. Thomas said spirits were low earlier that day because while she was in custody, no one knew where the baby was."I was sick to my stomach knowing that she was caught and they didn't have my grandson," Thomas said."But when we got that call, we just had a party in the parking lot."

But because Thomas is a person of compassion, she also wants Jackson to receive mental health assistance, the grandmother added."We're definitely going to be more hands-on, more protective and just, you know, making sure that this never happens again," she said.
