His mother, Kamilah Johnson, was taken into custody by the Minneapolis Police Department on an active arrest warrant filed by this agency for a felony charge of Child Endangerment, which was filed in the 185th District Court here in Harris County.

In addition, Kamilah Johnson is currently in the custody of the Minneapolis Police Department awaiting the extradition process back to Harris County.

We would like to thank the many local, state and federal partners who assisted over the last 3 weeks in locating Noah. These partners include:

• Kansas City, Missouri Violent Crimes Task Force
• Minneapolis, Minnesota Police Department
• Texas Department of Family Services
• Minnesota Department of Family Services
• Texas Center for the Missing
• Texas DPS Fusion Center

I am participating in the 2023 Walk Like MADD Harris and Montgomery County to raise mission critical funds for Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) to fight the 100 percent preventable crimes of drunk and drugged driving. Did you know that 2 out of 3 people will be impacted by a drunk driving crash in their lifetime? Two out of three! Walk Like MADD provides an outlet for those impacted by drunk and drugged driving to channel their grief into hope and healing and provides communities the chance to surround and support those hurting by taking action to prevent others from suffering. How can YOU help? You can do your part by…
