ABC13?s local news affiliate KTRK shared the story of Zavion Parker, a young boy who was abducted from his school bus stop on Monday (May 14) in East Houston when five teenage boys who forced him into a 4-door vehicle decorated with flames on the side.
Details + witness video below…
Authorities are searching for 5 teens who were reportedly accompanied by at least one white adult male driver. The driver is said to have orange hair and a racially-charged tattoo that read, ?I hate black people.?
The suspects abducted 13 year old Zavion Parker and took the sixth grader to an abandoned building where they assaulted him and took his jacket, shoes, phone and keys. Once they had the phone in their possession, they reportedly began to text his mother, Michelle Lee, with threatening messages.
?We?re going to hang him. You?re going to find him in the morning,? read one of the messages. Lee then called the police and filed a report saying that her son never returned home from school and she was receiving threatening messages.
Zavion reportedly managed to escape and ran away when the suspects went into another room to load a gun.
The story sounds bizarre to some, however there’s actually a witness.
A woman by the name of Camecia Carmouche happened to be driving down the street and saw the young boy with a torn shirt and no shoes and asked if he needed help. ?His face was puffed up. He had scratches. His shirt was ripped. He had no shoes on,? said Carmouche.
She also said the child told her that the bodies of other black men or boys were in the shack.
