Three children who had been missing over the weekend with their babysitter were located Sunday, police said.

The Mamby children, Alona, 4; Meischon, 6; and Isabella, 8, were last seen on Friday at 7:30 p.m. with their babysitter, Constance Franks, on the 300 block of West Hyde Park Boulevard in Inglewood, according to the Inglewood Police Department.

Police had said that Franks “possibly left on foot with the children in an unknown direction.”

The California Highway Patrol sent out an Amber Alert on Sunday for “child abduction/taken” but canceled it just hours later, saying the children had been found.

It was unclear what the circumstances were surrounding the children’s disappearance and recovery.
