(KMZA)--A happy ending following tense times for a Seneca family Sunday night.
That came when two young children wandered away from home and became lost.
Seneca Volunteer Fire Chief Allen Henry says his crews were notified of the situation, and went to work to help find the missing children. “We were paged out at, oh I think it was around 8 o'clock,” Henry tells MSC News. “A two and a three year old had wandered away from home, and were lost. They basically made their way to the creek. We got there just a little after eight, formed a search line through the cornfield, through the creek. We went straight south of the house where the mother thought they would go and we found them a half-a-mile south of the house, just coming up out of the creek. A couple of citizens on horseback has found them.”
The children, when found just north of Seneca, had been missing for around two hours.
