KHOU in Houston reported Monday, the same day that investigators issued the Amber Alert for the missing 12-year-old, that Angela Martin had gotten a phone call while at work that day around 2:00 p.m.. Mary Gifford, Jonathan Foster's grandmother, told the news station, "Someone called and said it was an emergency. But by the time she picked up the phone, no one was there."

Houston Police investigators are awaiting the results of a forensic examination of a badly-burned body found in a ditch early this morning to see if it is the body of missing 12-year-old Jonathan Foster.

The body was believed to be that of a child about 3-feet tall, but was so badly burned the gender could not be immediately determined. The area around the body was not burned, leading to the theory the victim was burned elsewhere and dumped in the ditch.

Angela Davis called the land line where she and Jonathan live, and a woman with a gruff voice answered, Harris said. Jonathan’s mother asked for her roommate, and the woman said the roommate wasn’t there.

"Then Angela says, ‘Well, this is Angela, I’m Jonathan’s mother. Who are you?’" Harris said. "And the woman is heard saying, ‘Is Angela your mother?’ And the boy replies, ‘Yes ma’am, Angela’s my mother.’ And then the phone went dead."

A car, belonging to Foster's stepdad, searched and then towed from his apartment complex. He was the last person to have reportedly seen the missing child. Investigators are questioning the stepdad and the boy's mother.

Along the tollway, where the badly burned body was dumped, a surveillance camera on a nearby business has already yielded what police have called significant information.
 
UPDATE: A close family friend has been arrested and is expected to be charged with the kidnapping and murder of 12-year-old Jonathan Foster, a police source close to the investigation said today.

The woman, whose name has not been released, was arrested this morning at her home, the source said.

A break in the case came when a vehicle that "was very identifiable as her vehicle" was spotted on surveillance video taken from an office building near the ditch where a body believed to be Jonathan’s was found in the 9900 block of East Hardy on Tuesday.
