A St. Bernard Parish couple are in custody in Mississippi, accused of taking their two-year-old son from a hospital where he was being treated for a cocaine overdose.

U.S. Marshals arrested Arianne Stechmann, 37, and Johnathan Kritzman, 31, at a hotel in Bay St. Louis on Tuesday.

The toddler was being treated at the ICU at Children's Hospital in New Orleans in late January.

After the Louisiana Department of Children and Family Services was granted emergency custody of the boy, the couple took him and fled.

They're in the Hancock County Jail awaiting extradition to Louisiana.
