A woman was arrested Tuesday morning nearly two years after the death of 1-year-old Zarion Robinson.The arrest came after the baby died in a reported stolen car crash.Mikayla Tweedie told TMJ4 that she thinks about Zarion every day."Zarion just lit up the room. Everybody loved him. He would have been 3 years old December 28th," Tweedie said. "I just really miss my baby." In January 2023, investigators say Antwineesha Burse took Tweedie's car while Zarion was in his car seat in the back. Burse collided with another vehicle near 35th and Hope in Milwaukee. Law enforcement believe Burse was traveling south when she crossed into the northbound lanes and crashed into an oncoming driver.RELATED LINKS:-Read our previous coverage of this story-More coverage of this storyWatch: 'A big relief': Mother relieved after suspect arrested in 1-year-old's death 'A big relief': Mother relieved after suspect arrested in 1-year-old's deathTweedie says she ran into a house to get something and left Burse, an acquaintance, with her son."I felt mad, angry, you know, mixed emotions.

Officials said she initially tried to flee but then cooperated without incident.Tweedie felt relief when she learned of the arrest."I hope that justice is just served completely, and we can all just grieve in peace," Tweedie stated.Tweedie says looking back she would have done things differently. As a new mom then, she told TMJ4 she would not have been so trusting."My biggest question for her would be why," Tweedie said.No court date has been set for Burse yet. She faces three criminal charges including homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle.Its about time to watch on your time.
