According to KSDK.com, the 30-year-old suspected of abandoning her infant son last week in a Breckenridge Hills apartment building was found dead in the trunk of her own car.
Ebony Jackson’s 2004 Mitsubishi Galant was found Tuesday morning in the 4400 block of Elmbank Ave.. The vehicle was towed to a secure location so police could begin a thorough search.
Jackson’s 3-month-old baby was discovered in the hallway of the Hickory Trace Apartment building on Friday (Jan. 4)
A man from Oklahoma claiming to be the father of the baby said Ebony Jackson left with their son and was headed to Missouri.
That man came to St. Louis earlier this week for the sake of taking a paternity test, the results of which are still pending.
