A 5-year-old Dickinson boy was found safe in Alvin, and the man who failed to bring him back home Monday is being questioned by police.

Christopher Devon Alan Byerly accompanied a family friend, Darrell Ray Shaver, 29, on a trip to Pasadena about 8 a.m. Monday, authorities said.

The boy was reported missing Monday evening. Police issued an Amber Alert about 1 a.m. when they learned Shaver may be using crack cocaine.

Acting on a telephone tip, Alvin police found Shaver's car at an Alvin apartment complex early this morning and discovered Shaver leaving an apartment with a gun.

Devon was found asleep on a couch inside the apartment. Police said the apartment belonged to Shaver's grandmother, but that he broke in and will be charged with burglary.

Devon was reunited with his parents and taken to an area hospital to be examined.

Thank God he was found alive!!! That poor kid...that jerk had no business taking a 5 year old little boy with him on a drug run!! Lock him up so nothing worse happens to the next little kid! I think we're way too easy on criminals.
