After more than two years of separation, a mother is finally reunited with her three children in Utah.
Authorities successfully recovered the children, originally from American Fork, Utah, in a small town about four hours away on the Arizona border in Fredonia.
Authorities allege the father orchestrated the children’s disappearance and hid them with the help of family members from the Fundamentalist Latter-Day Saint (FLDS) faith.
According to a press release from the Fredonia Police Department released on Wednesday, Chief Peterson coordinated with department members and various agencies, including the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office, Kanab City Police Department, Kane County Sheriff’s Office, Kane County SWAT, Washington County Sheriff’s Office, and Homeland Security, to plan and execute the retrieval of the missing children.
On September 1, officers located the minors and returned them to their mother. Responding agencies arrested the children’s grandmother and aunt, who appeared to be overseeing the children. However, they are still searching for the father.
