Patrice Wilson, 29, was allegedly abducted by Jamere Miller, 36, from the parking lot of the DMC Detroit Receiving Hospital just before 8 a.m., per the Detroit News. Wilson and Miller once dated, the outlet added.
“It is with deep sadness that we offer heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and DMC colleagues of cherished nurse leader Patrice Wilson, as well as Patrice’s mother, another dedicated DMC team member,” DMC director of communications Brian Taylor said in a statement.
Wilson reportedly was about to get into her 2020 Lincoln Nautilus when Miller allegedly kidnapped her and drove away in the vehicle. He remains at large and was last seen wearing a blonde wig, police said.
It was discovered that Wilson had been shot once authorities found her body, according to multiple outlets.
“I need the streets to talk. We need to find the person who killed Patrice, so she can have justice,” Wilson’s mother, Roslind Livingston, told Local 4 news.
Livingston went on to say that her daughter had been “trying to get away” from Miller in recent weeks. “She knew he was toxic to her,” Livingston added.
