'Operation Homecoming' leads to rescue of 8 endangered children in Indiana, US Marshals say

 


INDIANAPOLIS — Eight missing children were rescued during a five-day operation in the Indianapolis area, according to a Friday release from the U.S. Marshals Southern District of Indiana.

The children rescued during "Operation Homecoming" are between 6 to 17 years old and "considered to be some of the most at-risk and challenging recovery cases in the area," the release said.

No further details about the youths or their circumstances were released.

An adult was also arrested during the operation on charges that included parental kidnapping, possession of weapons and intimidation.

To help locate these children, the U.S. Marshals Service planned for months with other organizations including the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. 

The children were turned over to the care of the Indiana Department of Child Services.
