Three children reported missing from Oklahoma have been safely located in Colorado, leading to the arrest of a 30-year-old woman.

Authorities in Colorado took the woman into custody in connection with the children’s disappearance. She is currently being held without bail as she awaits the legal process for extradition back to Oklahoma.

Law enforcement officials credited the positive resolution of the case to strong cooperation between agencies in both states. Colorado authorities stated that this type of cross-state communication is essential for the successful recovery of missing children.

Officials also noted that a top priority in investigations of this nature is to quickly verify the physical safety of the children involved. The case now moves forward with the suspect facing legal proceedings in Oklahoma.
