Houma police say they discovered the body of a missing two-year-old in a trash can.

Cops have arrested the little boy's mother and her boyfriend.


The child's body was in the garbage on Daspit Street in Houma.

Maya Jones and her live-in boyfriend, Jermaine Robinson face charges.

WWL TV reports that the family of the child's father found out about the discovery as Ezekiel Harry's grandmother got a call informing her that the boy's body had been found.

Houma Police said Harry was initially reported missing Tuesday afternoon while walking outside with his mother and three other children.

Channel 4 says what was initially reported as an abduction became a possible case of foul play after police say the child's mother repeatedly changed her account of the incident.

Police said 28-year-old Maya Jones initially told police that someone in a gray truck abducted Harry.

Houma police say they investigated the report and found that Jones was giving them inaccurate information.

WWLTV’s Meg Farris interviewed Harry’s father and other family members from the father’s side of the family. Farris said that the mother and father are separated and in different relationships.

Before Harry’s body was found, Farris was interviewing Harry’s family members near the intracoastal waterway that police were searching.
