According to the Washington County Sheriff's Office, the reported missing child is connected to a shooting that happened this weekend in Burton; the victim reportedly had to be airlifted to a Bryan hospital with serious injuries.
As worded in their press release, investigators were able to connect a suspect to this incident after learning of a vehicle that was parked behind the business all said day; the likes of which, reportedly belonged to Joshua Crowley.
At the time the deputy made contact with the suspect, there was reportedly no indication that the child would, later in the day, be the focus of an Amber Alert. The alert was placed the same day of the shooting and as a result of an Austin Police Department’s missing person investigation, which was reportedly initiated by the mother of the child.
The Austin Police Department was made aware of the Burton shooting that listed the suspect as Crowley after the Washington County Sheriff's Office sent out a BOLO (Be on the Lookout) for the suspect and vehicle shortly after the shooting.
