TETON COUNTY, Idaho (TCD) -- Law enforcement officials are searching for a 48-year-old man they allege killed his wife, then ran off with their 10-month-old son.
According to the Teton County Sheriff's Office, on Thursday, Nov. 30, at approximately 11:40 p.m., a dispatcher received a call from someone on Skyline Loop and heard a disturbance in the background. They sent deputies to the home to investigate, and when they arrived, they found 38-year-old Kali Jean Randall deceased. The sheriff's office and Idaho State Police are investigating her death as a homicide.
The sheriff's office said they are searching for Randall's husband, Jeremy Albert Best, who was believed to be driving a black 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe. Best allegedly fled the home with their son, Zeke Gregory Best.
An Amber Alert went out as the search continues.
Officials published photos of Zeke and Jeremy Best and said Jeremy Best is "believed to be heavily armed."
According to KBOI-TV, on Nov. 29, one day before the suspected kidnapping, Bonneville County Sheriff's Office deputies reportedly found Jeremy Best walking around a general store naked. EMS transported him to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, where he reportedly underwent a mental health evaluation.
KBOI reports Best does not have custody of Zeke.
