The victim, who was not identified out of fear for her son's safety, said she dated the suspect for two years but broke up over the summer.

The day of the incident, the suspect broke into her home and came up behind her with a knife, then forced her son into a closet and duct-taped him before driving the mother near the Humble area, where she escaped.

Wiltz ran off from the area and was wanted by the police. He was later arrested on Dec. 7 in Bakersfield, California, and was booked into the Kern County Jail.

He is being held on a $150,000 bond in the Harris County Jail and is expected to appear in court on Tuesday, Dec. 27.
