JEFFERSON PARISH, La. – A woman in Louisiana is accused of abducting her 12-year-old granddaughter from a hospital room while armed with a gun.

Evelyn Miller faces a count of simple kidnapping, five counts of aggravated assault with a firearm, two counts of simple battery, and violation of a firearm-free zone, according to The Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office.

“At around 5:00 pm yesterday, Evelyn Miller entered Adreana’s hospital room to remove her from the hospital. When hospital staff attempted to prevent her from leaving with the child, she pointed a firearm at several of them. In making her escape from the location, she pushed one nurse to the ground and struck a security guard with her vehicle. No one was physically injured.”

A manhunt ensued, but it turned out that according to authorities, the search didn’t last more than a day.
