So they really aren't sure if the parents put the people up to this...or if the grandmother just gave her grandkids to perfect strangers?! OMG! No paperwork. No badges. Just handed them over?

I hope they find them very soon and the two who took them punished severely! Actually, four...if in fact the parents are involved.

Wow, they really didn't travel anywhere. They were found at a local shelter in Spokane. The mother was with the kids, but not the father.

Just glad that the kids are safe.


SPOKANE, Wash - Three local children who were the subjects of an Amber Alert were found early Friday morning at women's shelter on East Sprague in Spokane.

According to police, someone at the Union Gospel Mission women's shelter recognized the children - 2-year-old Payton E. Johnson, 6-year-old Britton D. Johnson, and 2-year-old Riley P. Johnson - as the possible subjects of the Amber Alert and reported it to police.
